Re-Launched MDiv Program Offers in-Depth Courses, Personal Mentorship
From the very beginning, YTI has been concerned that the “status quo” Master of Divinity often falls short of this goal. We believe YTI’s revised MDiv will better equip students for the work of ministry and edification of the body of Christ.
In each of the reflections in this issue of Inscribed, you find the miracle of Christmas. We have truly given of our time, talents, and resources so that YTI can sustain its ministry. We pray that you will join us on this adventure.
