Fascinating, in-depth preparation for serving in the Middle East

Personal life stories of some amazing, long-term, faithful servants of the Lord in the Middle East. The lecturers shared vulnerably about their victories, challenges, discoveries and insight gained from serving the Lord in an area where Christians are a small minority.

*Jerusalem Seminary (JS) courses are engagingly academic and taught by experts in their field living in Israel. While JS’ courses are not externally accredited, they can be taken for internal JS credit. Any internal JS credit will accrue and at a later time would hopefully, through articulation agreements and accreditation bodies, receive official accreditation; a process that JS is beginning.
