The church needs leaders who know Christ richly, who are ready to serve others as he served us, and are thoroughly equipped for ministry in our complex world. To meet that need, Oak Hill offers deep-rooted training and a range of resources for Christ-centred ministry.
Whatever ministry you have in mind, whether Independent or Anglican, leading or planting churches, youth and children’s ministry, ministry amongst women, serving in cross-cultural mission, or anything else, we are here to equip you for that work.
Our programmes of study are all designed to provide a deep and broad theological training to meet the demands of gospel ministry. As well as a core of compulsory modules, you can select options tailored to whatever ministry you have in mind, whether that’s church leadership, youth and children's ministry, cross-cultural mission, evangelism, or other pastoral ministries. You can study many of our programmes full time or part time.
Flexible Learning modules are for people wanting to start theological study, for people wanting to expand their knowledge of a particular area, or be equipped for more effective ministry, whether at home, at church, in the community or in the workplace.
We’d love to welcome you to one of our Open Mornings during 2022/23. They are designed to help you think about the importance of theological training for ministry and to discover how we prepare people for the broad and deep demands of ministry. So whatever stage you're at, come along so we can share our vision for training, introduce you to some students, and give you a flavour of life at Oak Hill.
To follow on from the recent podcast on world mission and the local church, here is a guest blog from Chris Howles, who from his own experience, shares his personal ‘top ten tips’ for healthy links between missionaries and their sending church.
Following on from our recent Deep Roots Podcast episode on 1 and 2 Thessalonians, Dr Sydney Tooth showcases some of the pastoral insights these two letters offer us.
Chris Stead unpacks his list of significant books that have shaped his journey as a Christian, student, pastor, and theological educator, and explains why we might want to consider reading them too.
We are eager to send out from Oak Hill women and men who will go out into all the world, into churches, youth groups, inner city estates, crossing cultures locally and nationally, for Jesus Christ with that invitation for anybody and everybody to come to him.”
