The School of Faith Course
Learn to live a naturally supernatural lifestyle through the School of Faith course featuring the Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry Curriculum.
The course is intended to teach you to carry God's presence with you into Ne Zealand and the nations. You'll strengthen your identity as a child of God and be empowered to demonstrate God's power to reveal His love. You'll move in your gifts and passions, gain ministry experience and learn practical skills to fulfil your call (whether business, arts, ministry or more) - all as we minister to the people of New Zealand. When you graduate, you'll also have established a network of people to partner with you in your next step.
This course is about walking with Jesus, establishing your call and building a legacy with God together.
The part-time course can be studied from anywhere in New Zealand. The course is up to three years, with options to stop after first or second years.

Study First Year
The First Year course is comprised of lectures, practical tutorials, experiences, revival groups, mentoring, and outreach that culminates in a missions trip.
In First Year you'll discover and unlock what is already true in you. You were made glorious from your first moment, it's time to take hold of your inheritance! You’ll learn to understand who you are as a son or daughter and what we have access to, so we can then take that knowledge into New Zealand to tell people about Jesus and unite our nation. As Jesus restored everything to you on the cross we know the battle is now for the mind to activate what we already have.
The course will bring a greater intimacy with God, activate and grow faith, practically demonstrate supernatural ministry, as well as give you natural skills like administration for ministry, emotional IQ, diligence and leadership. You'll also understand how intimacy with God applies in society today as we influence our modern community. So whether you’re an apostle or doctor, the School of Faith will help will get you there.
This is not intended to be your last year of study in life but your first year of walking more intimately with God into your call for the rest of your life.
If we’re to go further than ever before, we need God’s confirming signs and wonders to point us there.

Structure
The course employs lectures and reading to lay a foundation. We then meet in fortnightly groups either online or face-to-face. The groups are assigned geographically by city or region, so you've got people close to you to study alongside. The course also includes 2 mandatory 2-day intensives during the year in your capital city where activation will be your focus.
We think you’ll also get as much from the atmosphere and life with other students as you do from in-class lecture-based teaching. Knowing there are multiple ways students develop, we employ a 'teach, discover, practice' philosophy. You'll learn from books, talks, your own study and by doing. Remember, as you seek, the chief instructor on campus, the Holy Spirit, will reveal more to you.
Alongside face-to-face in-class teaching and learning, there will be local ministry opportunities and mission trips. Students may choose to go on a local trip or an overseas trip to practice all that they have learned.
Booklist
Our booklist covers histories of the lives of those who have moved in great signs and wonders in the past, strong teaching from the present, and foundational works that we consider are a spiritual inheritance written down by those who have come before us.
Tutors
You'll be tutored in live classes by a combination of those who hold five-fold ministry offices, Bethel alumni, and guest speakers. You'll also study under BSSM Redding staff via prepared video. Your tutors are all presently ministering in areas they are instructing, with experience in practical supernatural living.

“
[Our instructors] inspire leaders into the impossible and set fire to complacency.
They inspired me to become more dangerous for Jesus and take on challenges that I otherwise would have felt ill-equipped for.
- Maie, Ministry Training 2016
“
I began to walk with great faith and boldness into any and every situation because I started to understand for myself what it meant to be a child of God.
- Kate, Mission Training 2014
“
It was new teaching on the supernatural I hadn't heard before, which I have seen fruit from, and has lead me into deeper intimacy with God. What I liked most though was that we practiced doing what we were learning in the training session.
