Testimonial:

As a lay elder, I keep looking for ways to grow in order to better serve our church and encourage the brothers I labor alongside.


Practically Trained Pastors has been an excellent avenue for that growth—and a meaningful help in living out 1 Timothy 4:16: “Pay close attention to your life and teaching. Persevere in these things, for by so doing you will save both yourself and those who hear you.”


After completing the year-long cohort, I can say with confidence that—even in a busy season—the time invested in PTP was time well spent. My church and I are better for it. I’ll miss the regular rhythms of discussion, training, and prayer with Steve and the other brothers serving in our community.
