The church is not to be absorbed by culture, but culture is to be impacted and influenced by the church. Knowing what truth is, and how to communicate it, is the only way that can happen. Understanding what we believe, and why we believe it is very essential to our mission in the world. The vision of ExCeLL is to undergird God's people to accomplish this task. Licensed or ordained ministers, along with aspiring ministers and committed lay persons who are interested in spiritual development and biblical instruction, are welcome to enroll.
Classes are open to both men and women.
A high school diploma or GED is recommended but not required. Costs have been kept low in order to give everyone an opportunity to attend. Full college credit will be awarded for successfully completing the courses, just as if one had attended the classes on the campus in Houston. A certificate will be given for each course, and a transcript will be maintained in each student's permanent college records.
