Preaching is easy! Or is it?
Do you feel the weight of having to “rightly divide the word of truth”?
And then deliver that truth with the transforming power of the Holy Spirit?
To people who came to church with very different backgrounds and concerns?
And doing so every week?

CrossTalk Distinctives
Cohort-Based
We believe the best learning occurs within relationships, so we limit the size of our classes. Here you can develop strong relationships with people who share your passion and will enrich your ministry.
Faculty-Mentor Led
Our instructors are recognized experts who will walk with you throughout the program. And will share their lives as well as their expertise along the way.
Practitioner-Sensitive
We believe that learning is doing and we won’t ask you to write papers and book reports. Your assignments will be integrated into and designed to assist your ministry.
Spiritual Formation-Focused
We believe that truly effective preachers first apply God’s word to themselves. We shape lives with Scripture while shaping Scripture into sermons.
Culturally Aware
Our international expertise ensures that the way you preach will resonate with your culture.
