They are designed to help you become rooted and grounded in the Word of God, enabling you to stand on His solid truth. Our dynamic instructors hold degrees at the Master or Doctoral level and have many years of ministry experience. You will be challenged to grow and mature in your faith as there are tremendous benefits and immeasurable spiritual growth as you study the Word of God under anointed and inspired teaching.

White Horse School of Ministries is a non-traditional, ministry preparation institution of learning in that we do not have semesters or terms. You will be able to take classes at your own pace and set your hours of study. Our school is designed to fit into your active schedule while helping you prepare for your ministry.

We offer three methods for taking classes:

  1. Correspondence Courses may be purchased and completed per the student’s discretion.

  2. A One-Week Intensive is held each March at White Horse Christian Center in West Lafayette, Indiana, called The Word Conference. We offer four dynamic classes worth three credits each or twelve credits in total. This is approximately equal to a semester in a traditional college. (Read more about The Word Conference on page 18).

  3. Fall and/or Winter on-site classes are offered periodically. If you are on our mailing list, you will receive notification of these opportunities.
