GRADUATE CHAMPS ALT CENTRE PROGRAMS
We are currently in the process of developing several levels of scholarly, quality Programs which we elaborate on below. These are our Certificate, Diploma, Bachelors, Masters and Doctorate Programs. We are also in the process of developing specialty major programs for Nouthetic Christian Counselling, Health and Fitness,Chaplaincy, Pastoral Ministry, five-fold callings,spiritual gifts and Missions. We will be updating this site as we make these new Programs available so check back often. You may make further enquiries at this time at info@phoenixarise.org This Centre is for training Christian leaders worldwide in various capacities for Ministry in all of the above areas. We will continue to add, delete,modify and/or expand these Programs as we grow with advance notice for new students. Students may opt to remain in the program they first applied and registered in if the program changes or evolves in any way. We have two-tiers of Programs here at all academic levels: free and low-cost Specialty Programs for the above mentioned Majors. Please see the links to the left at the Nav Bar for admissions and other specific information. We are not 'accredited' by any government or secular body nor do we intend to pursue such. Please check with your future institution if this is what you are seeking for their entrance requirements as you may not be able to transfer your studies here to there as is the case anywhere- before you apply here. The degrees we offer here are scholarly however called 'honoris causa' religious degrees and are legally valid according to the state and country laws you reside in as these laws vary from place to place. Ironically, as far as the Kingdom of God is concerned these 'religious' degrees may very well be the only ones of any eternal weight, consequence, utility or value when it comes to the 'test of our works by fire' when the Lord judges all things by His truth and standards! These degrees are all quality and will give you the education you need to be an effective Christian leader in your calling and will involve a comparable workload and standards to graduate as with any Bible College or Seminary level education.
