Pastoral Cohorts in 2025
Pastoring is a high and holy calling, and it is a hard job, but you don't have to go it alone! These small groups are designed for men, women, or married couples in vocational church ministry.
You can find new hope and resilience in a safe, peer community led by church leaders who have been there. Many groups are already running. New groups are starting in January!
Come join in!
The cost is $100 per person per year.

All year around:
"Pastor in Training" Scholarship
Many church leaders contact us each month looking for a senior pastor and other staff positions. Jessup University's mission has always been to help The Church as we raise up pastors who lead, preach, and care for people with excellence and integrity in the name of Christ.
If you have someone in your church that has an obvious calling on their life for full time pastoral ministry, we want to help get them ready by helping them with a "Pastor in Training" scholarship which could pay for most, if not all of their tuition to attend Jessup.
Thanks for sharing this with someone who needs to know how Jessup wants to help:
So you want to be a pastor?
