Program Objectives

The objectives of the Doctor of Philosophy-Divine Communications Program are to:

• Deliver multiple lectures that engage students in discussions and query response sessions, coach and cultivate its most vital intelligences and effective principles that assure students have sufficient information to pass the program and ample material to complete assignments.
• Review, etymologize, and pragmatize relevant terminology to promote student’s multifold appreciation, of course subject matter.
• Build on and bridge the bachelor’s and master’s programs introductory to advanced theories and principles to establish for students the path to informative and credible divine communications as portrayed in the Holy Scriptures.
• Enlarge students’ academic and ministerial minds to go from viewing prophecy as strictly futurism and prophets as nothing more than prophesiers to elevate their comprehension to embrace the higher performance features of their mantleship.
• Instruct students in the soulogical vein of divine communications so they explore and examine more than its verbalizations and predictions.
• Lead students through scripture’s disclosures and treatment of the prophets to anchor them in God’s need for and history with them, culminating in their ability to convey His mysteries persuasively.
• Show students how to extract scripture’s prophetic theologies and consultancies and use them to formulate contemporary prophetic doctrine and wisdom to propagate in public ministry.
• Assign students readings and audio video lectures that supplement live lectures and augment exercises in preparation for research projects, write papers that flush out course teachings.
• Enable students to licentiate their future followers and advocates by educating them in the fundamentals of criteria-based assessments, evaluations, credentialling, and compatible placement.
• Advance students critique and diagnostic training to the specialist and above level, so they aptly scrutinize prophecy and prophets to discern the true from the false and thereby accurately approve or reprove published divine communications.
• Teach students how to classify different prophet’s mantles and officiations and categorize their ministrations so they can match and cross match one with the other to recommend and engage the right (or best) divine communicant, those that minister relevantly and competently when referrals are solicited.
• Observe from course submissions, especially cases and surveys, student’s methods of scripturalizing modern prophets to appeal to and influence the contemporary world.
• Guide and assess student’s prophecy formulation, prophetic education and development, fusion of ancient and modern prophecies based on program teachings to refine their ability to remain within God’s prophetic continuum and retain its fidelity.
• Hold numerous divine communications sessions to enable student to self-assess and group critique the messages and mantleship resulting from lecturers, discussions, and other training aspects.
• Expose students to the biblical and spontaneous nuances of prophetic service so they breed strong discernment, strengthen their competence and confidence when delivering God’s divine communications.
• Brace students’ prophetic apparatus to function expertly and achieve the Lord’s results.
• Create experimentation venues that aid student’s ability to technolize their prophetic faculties for future divine communications and acquire and exercise prudence in God’s service.
• Render, through a targeted mix of specialized tactics, methods, and approaches student’s prophetic capacities and communication skills on par with secular counterparts and above.
• Qualify students to compete for compensable positions as divine communicants in and outside the Lord’s ecclesia.
• Buttress students’ capabilities for speaking on God’s behalf in various decisions, using training games, and simulations.
• Motivate and validate the potential professional as well as professional mantleship to cast vision for students’ employability and deployability at the end of the studies.
• Steer students’ founding and fashioning of a divine institute, agencies, governing sites, and centers as experts.
• Enable students to satisfactorily produce coursework and submission that meet completion criteria for passing the program with an 80% or better grade.
