The Talmid School of Theology (TST) is a ministry of W.L.A, Living Word Christian Church.  Our sole mission is to provide a quality, in-depth, seminary level, Biblical education to our pastors and leadership around the world for the furtherance of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as found in Matthew 28:18-20.

What TST is:  The TST is a ministry of WLA Living Word Christian Church and is designed to equip, prepare and educate our pastors and leadership in the Word of God, wherever they are located in the world.  Courses can be accessed via the internet, free of charge for the purpose of training the pastors and leadership overseas.

What TST is not:  TST takes its authority to teach and train disciples from the Holy Bible.  TST is not and does not seek accreditation from any governmental agency.

The Problem: 

In most of countries around the world, pastors and leadership rarely receive any level of biblical training after the initial set-up of the church.  This leaves them in a position of having to “figure it out” on their own, with very little or no discernment between the truth of the Word of God and false teaching.   We encounter that the vast majority of pastors are ill equipped and prepared for the ministry.  Turning to the only resources available to them, they rely on the internet, radio and television as the primary source of their theological training

To further complicate the matter, most seminaries and bible colleges based in the United States and Europe require the student (pastor) to attend courses at their campuses.  The average pastor in the ministry does not have the financial resources to travel or to pay the tuition and cost of books.   If they are able to attend, following graduation, many pastors choose to stay in the United States instead of returning to the people of their country of origin to train them, rendering them useless to their congregations left behind.

The Biblical Solution:

The solution is found in Matthew 28:19-20.

Simply put, Jesus tells us to “GO therefore and make disciples of all the nations” … “TEACHING them to observe all the I have commanded”.
