Upcoming Online Courses
Missouri School of Religion began offering online Certificate of Pastoral Ministry courses in 2007. The first online "History and Polity of the Disciples of Christ" course taught by Rev. Ken Watson had 16 registrants from 5 different states. The Certificate of Pastoral Ministry curriculum is a three-year rotation of classes preparing one for licensed, commissioned or apprenticed ministry. The courses are also ideal for ministers desiring continuing education and for interested lay persons. The entire CPM curriculum will be online in the next two years.
