What it says it does

Provide theological education in mostly developing nations, for those pastors, church planters and other church leaders who do not have access to theological education, whether for lack of time or money. The curriculum is typically what one would find in a Bachelor's or Master's of Divinity in the USA. We also have programs that support this primary purpose.

Governance

This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
