Ministry & Leadership

The beauty of (the ministry leadership program), is that wherever we’re going, wherever the Lord wants to take us, ministry leadership prepares you to keep pressing into Jesus and to find him in all of the different places that he might lead.”

Testimonial

As a transfer student from another Christian college, I was cautiously excited to see all that Toccoa Falls College had to offer, specifically within their Ministry Leadership Department. I quickly learned that the professors within the MLD were unmatched to any prior teachers I had. They were gracious, they had incredible life and ministry experience, and they were genuinely invested in the cares and lives of their students. My time in the MLD was transformative for what my life looks like now and I anticipate always carrying it along with me. I gained an in-depth knowledge of what true servant leadership looks like, I was given opportunities to grow and refine my hopes for my personal ministry, and in everything that we did we were in a space that allowed our lives to become more and more centered on Christ.
