Ministry is a life time pursuit of learning and personal growth. We must be ever learning to increase our skills in communication, delivery, and content. There are many books and magazines that are helpful as well as many online resources to draw from.

You can enroll in online universities so you can choose a specific school of study pertinent to your interest and ministry. Church conferences and seminars are always beneficial as well.
It has never easier for a pastor or leader to avail themselves of the many resources available. We live and minister in a changing world and we need to do all we can to stay in touch with out times.

It may not be necessary for a minister to be educated in a formal way; but it is more important than ever, and some credentials on wall never hurts!

Continuous Personal Develop (CPD) is essential!
