    This is NOT about YOU or how you feel....the question is WHAT DOES GOD WANT YOU TO DO? By concentrating on our own worth we would seem to imply that some of us are more worthy or without sin or with lesser sins. YOu know what the Bible says about that.. there is none that is without sin... we have all fallen and come short of the the glory of God. So pray that God would make it clear to you what His will is, through Jesus's name and say Thank YOu for being EVEN considered. Remember, everyone is called to be a minister in some way even grandmothers who don't, in many cases, even have a great EDUCATION!
    ... for all it is our duty to Thank and to Praise.. God above all things.

First Annual Research Forum

By Anonymous
On September 11 CLS promoted its first Annual Research Forum. Faculty and a guest presenter discussed the Theological research they completed in the past year.
A graduate school's vocation - as it is for any university - is carried out on a triangular basis, with each point supporting and sustaining the others:
· Teaching (in the sense of formal education)
· Research
· Extension
As an academic place, our school is also a place, then, where knowledge is revisited, built and shared in formal and informal education.
Our seminary supports each professor's research by allocating time and means for formal research. Each year, research projects are received and approved; completed projects are shared with the larger community; and final results of each project are evaluated for publication in various ways: either as research articles in specialized journals, or as a doctoral thesis, or as a book.
The inaugural forum’s guest presenter was Rev. Mark Sander, pastor in Mannsville, AB, who sha…
