All of us here at Global are pleased to learn of your interest in our school. We are delighted that you are seeking to prepare yourself for service in God’s harvest fi eld. Our catalog provides information concerning who we are, our mission, history, and policies and procedures, as well as our various plans of study. We trust you will identify a program of study to help you prepare for God’s call on your life. A unique aspect of our program is the emphasis on applied learning and ministry through our service learning requirement (SLR). This requirement allows learners to move more rapidly from theory to practical application of what they are learning. In other words, learners benefi t from the integration of academic rigor with practical application throughout their studies. Global University is composed of four schools providing a seamless approach to study, ranging in academic level from certifi cates (initial evangelism and discipleship courses) through graduate degrees. The four schools are School for Evangelism and Discipleship, Berean School of the Bible (off ering adult continuing education courses to equip people for church leadership), Undergraduate School of Bible and Theology (off ering certifi cates, diplomas, associate of arts, and bachelor of arts degrees), and Graduate School of Theology (off ering master of arts, master of divinity, and doctor of ministry degrees). Catalogs for each school are available on our website at www.globaluniversity.edu. Global University’s learners benefi t not only from increased knowledge through studying course content but also from spiritual growth and increased discipline. Our instructional design helps them gain skills for a lifetime of learning, service, and ministry. Students and alumni fi ll positions of ministry as teachers, pastors, and missionaries. Others serve as local, district, and national church leaders. They actively work in both open and sensitive locations, fulfi lling God’s call on their lives to impact eternity where they are and wherever God leads them.

    2018 Baccalaureate 45th Commencement Celebration Thursday, May 3, 2018 12 Noon William J. Seymour Chapel at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary 1435 N. Glenstone Avenue, Springfield, Missouri Baccalaureate Program accalaureate at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS) Backnowledges several streams of influence. The medieval academic tradition is part of the seminary culture, so there are measures of formality: robes that reflect various academic disciplines and certain ceremonial dimensions that are integral to this event. AGTS is firmly rooted in the Pentecostal faith tradition. We affirm worship that is celebratory and vibrant, and we welcome the dynamics of the Holy Spirit in our congregational life. We are committed to the redemptive ministry of Jesus Christ that is empowered by the Holy Spirit. These elements of the Pentecostal tradition are also integral to the AGTS baccalaureate. AGTS is committed to thoroughness in graduate theological education. Ceremonial dimensions of this event acknowledge our graduates’ significant achievements in study. The celebratory dimensions demonstrate our belief that today’s graduates are people of destiny in God’s eternal plan of redemption. *PRELUDE AND PROCESSIONAL INVOCATION AND WELCOME RENÉE GRIFFITH CAROL A.

  • BC's Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions
    Made In B.C. – Volume II A History of Postsecondary Education in British Columbia B.C.’s Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions Bob Cowin Douglas College April 2009 The little paper that keeps growing I had a great deal of fun in 2007 using some of my professional development time to assemble a short history of public postsecondary education in British Columbia. My colleagues’ interest in the topic was greater than I had anticipated, encouraging me to write a more comprehensive report than I had planned. Interest was such that I found myself leading a small session in the autumn of 2008 for the BC Council of Post Secondary Library Directors, a group that I enjoyed meeting. A few days after the session, the director from Trinity Western University, Ted Goshulak, sent me a couple of books about TWU. I was pleased to receive them because I already suspected that another faith-based institution, Regent College in Vancouver, was perhaps BC’s most remarkable postsecondary success. Would Trinity Western’s story be equally fascinating? The short answer was yes. Now I was hooked. I wanted to know the stories of the other faith-based institutions, how they developed and where they fit in the province’s current postsecondary landscape. In the ensuing months, I poked around as time permitted on websites, searched library databases and catalogues, spoke with people, and circulated drafts for review. A surprisingly rich set of historical information was available. I have drawn heavily on this documentation, summarizing it to focus on organizations rather than on people in leadership roles.

  • Pentecostal Movement.Qxd
    The Pentecostal Movement © 2010 Rodney Shaw Charles Parham, Topeka, Kansas, 1901 1. Holiness preacher • Holiness preachers equated "baptism in the Spirit" in Acts with their doc- trine of sanctification. • “Pentecostal" began to be used a lot. “Back to Pentecost" became a rally- ing cry. • Some (a minority) began to seek a third experience of the baptism of the Holy Ghost (and fire), though they did not expect tongues. 2. Bethel Bible College, Topeka, Kansas 3. Revivals in the Midwest, Houston, etc. 4. A third work of grace: saved, sanctified, filled with the Holy Ghost. Williams Seymour and Azusa, Los Angeles, California, 1906 1. Holiness minister from Louisiana 2. Student of Parham in Houston 3. Invited to preach in Los Angeles 4. Locked out of church, Lee Home, Asberry Home on Bonnie Brae Street, Azusa Street Mission 5. Three-year revival 6. Spread around the world 7. Spirit baptism was normalized Finished work, William Durham, 1911 1. Baptist minister who had an experience he understood to be sanctification. 2. Received the baptism of the Spirit at Azusa Street in 1907. 3. Durham's conclusions (See David K. Bernard, History of Christian Doctrine, Vol. III): • The baptism of the Spirit was a different kind of experience. Notes "I saw clearly, for the first time, the difference between having the influ- ence and presence of the Spirit with us, and having Him dwell within us in person." • He could not simply "claim" the baptism of the Spirit. "I could not kneel at the altar, and claim the Holy Ghost and go away. This was a real experience.
