Knox Theological Seminary

Project Information

• Initiative: Individual School Grant (ISG)
• Project Title: Foundations, Formation, Fellowship: A Holistic Approach to Ministry Leadership
• Project Description: Knox Theological Seminary (KTS) is launching a transformative initiative to reimagine theological education in alignment with its mission: to educate men and women to declare and demonstrate the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Informed by multiple institutional assessments—including the Wise Stewards Initiative, ATS consultations, and Spring 2024 strategic planning—this initiative responds directly to the evolving needs of pastors and church leaders. It addresses three critical gaps: access to ministry training, competency in organizational leadership, and peer-based support for sustained vocational health. By integrating innovative educational models with robust leadership formation, KTS seeks to equip both pastors and lay leaders for faithful, sustainable ministry while also securing institutional resilience in an increasingly complex ministry landscape.
