We believe that with a strong academic foundation, you’ll be ready to lead with wisdom and conviction.
Practical Ministry
Your learning won’t be limited to the classroom. Here at SUM, we believe in doing ministry. You will be immersed in hands-on ministry experiences, such as leading outreach programs, developing creative media for worship, and serving in pastoral care. This practical training is where you truly step into your calling, embodying servant leadership as Jesus taught: “If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all” (Mark 9:35).
Personal Mentorship
We know that personal growth happens best through real relationships. That’s why you’ll receive personalized coaching and mentorship from our seasoned leaders who are committed to walking with you every step of the way. We’re here to encourage, challenge, and support you as you grow in your faith and leadership. At SUM, you’re not just another student; you’re part of a community that cares about your journey.

We understand that pursuing your calling shouldn’t be hindered by financial barriers. SUM is dedicated to making theological education accessible, with affordable tuition and financial support options. We want to help you fulfill your God-given purpose without the heavy burden of debt, so you can step confidently into the ministry He has prepared for you.
