Evangelistic Ministries

Have you felt called to preach the Word of God as part of a traveling ministry?

Christ tells us in the Great Commission to, “Go and make disciples of all nations.” A key element is working with our own nation. Evangelists play a vital role in getting the Word of God out to the people of America. This is done in a way that then allows the pastors and churches of the area to further disciple and shepherd those who hear the Word.

Through KMBC’s Evangelistic Ministries program, you will learn how to study for and prepare sermons and sermon sets, as well as how to give pastoral care and guidance. You’ll also have hands-on training for your ministry through our prison outreach, various church and other ministries offered through KMBC.

If you have a passion to see lost souls come to repentance and salvation, call us today to learn more about the Evangelistic Ministries program at KMBC.

Practical Preparation

Preparation for ministry goes far beyond the classroom. At KMBC, you’ll have a number of opportunities for practical outreach including prison ministry, nursing home ministry, ministries targeting area youth, dramatic ministry outreaches, as well as opportunities to preach and teach in area churches. By the time you graduate, you’ll be ready and passionate for the ministry into which God has called you!

KMBC has played a major role in my life, not only spiritually which is to be expected, but in the professional, social and overall makeup and fibers of who I have become.

What happens after graduation?

Ordination of Nathan Neihof, Class of 2011

Pastor of Hillside Wesleyan Church, Clyde, Michigan

After you have completed KMBC’s four year Evangelistic Ministries program, you have several options. Many of our graduates choose to step right into ministry as a full-time, lead pastor or assistant pastor. Or you could go right into ministry and use the connections you made at KMBC to begin your work for God.

Depending on what denomination you want to join, there is a process called ordination. This is where the leaders of a church or denomination license and commission you as a leader and preacher in the church. The steps involved vary depending on the denomination but most include a membership into a local church, additional class in the denomination’s church history and polity, and an interview with church leaders. Many of our graduates take positions in the Church of the Nazarene, the Wesleyan Church, Free Methodist and other Methodist churches, as well numerous independent holiness churches and associations.

One of the great benefits in attending Kentucky Mountain Bible College is that district superintendents and church leaders often come to us first when looking for a quality pastor. We regularly have more pastorate requests to be filled than we have gradates to fill them!

Considering a Master's Degree?

Some of our graduates choose to continue their education in pursuit of a Master of Arts or Master of Divinity degree (M.Div). Graduates choosing to do so, often remark at how well prepared they were for the academic challenges of seminary. Although our graduates have chosen to attend a variety of seminaries across the country, KMBC recommends Wesley Biblical Seminary in Ridgeland, Mississippi.
