Are you looking for more conversation … more context …
more clarity … more comradery?
Our competency-based approach provides a one-year, interactive experience designed to complement and enhance your theological education through small cohorts of 24–30 people.
“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Thought leaders from North America are curated exclusively for your context and made accessible through GCI’s Korean program.

Communal Learning with GCI Korean Advisor
Each quarter, you will have an in-person communal learning opportunity facilitated by a trusted expert. This 1.5 day of communal learning is designed to provide you with a community of practitioners with whom you can forge long-lasting relationships and partnerships. You will not only interact with and learn from an expert but also add your expertise to help problem-solve and create new innovative ideas with peers in a dynamic and trusting learning community. You will lock into a unique opportunity to contextualize principles learned and apply Biblical truth in your peer mentor groups.
We need you to be a part of this vibrant network of Kingdom leaders!
Reading
Each quarter, you will be given a suggested reading list which will help you deepen your understanding of the subject matter. In addition, transcriptions of each Gordon-Conwell Faculty session will be provided both in English and Korean for your future reference.
Mentor Interactions
Each quarter, a program mentor will provide you with the time, resources, and comradery needed to enrich your journey in this program. The cohort will be divided into two groups with a mentor assigned for each, and the mentor will walk with you individually as you reflect upon and self-assess your learning, provide mentor feedback, and help you achieve the desired competency development. These mentor interactions will nurture you to continue your formation beyond the parameters of formal education.
The Capstone Project provides time and space for you to pilot competencies pursued and measured in this program in a way that is meaningful to your unique, God-given responsibilities. The pilot plan— and its execution—will be reflected communally with peers and mentors in the final in-person communal learning for it to be further adjusted. The Capstone Project will thus help you to embed the rhythm of “Pursuing, Reflecting, and Adjusting” competencies so that they can be possessed in increasing measure for the church to flourish in the gospel.
