Doctor of Ministry

Jesus told Peter to “shepherd my sheep.” This sounds simple, but we live in a complex world of competing ideas on how to shepherd God’s flock. Caring for others in the twenty-first century as a Christian leader is increasingly challenging, so SBC seeks to sharpen each leader’s skills with the highest professional ministry degree – the Doctor of Ministry (DMin).

I have benefited immensely from the DMin program, in terms of gaining a deeper understanding and a more effective know-how for my pastoral and training ministries. Studying together with leaders from other countries has also resulted in strategic partnership in training church leaders from the Developing World.

The DMin program in SBC enhanced my ministerial training in both practical and spiritual aspects, as well as balancing the different demands of life. It further taught me valuable lessons on how I can be dependent on God and disciplined in my personal life so that I can experience longevity in ministry.

SBC DMin program elevated me to climb up higher to achieve my goal, envisioned me to see further to walk in the right path, upgraded me to face the current trends, and shaped me to be humble enough to be a servant leader for the church and society.
