Nazarene Theological College - Manchester

Our Vision Statement

As God’s holy people we aspire to be a learning community reflecting the love of God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Dedicated to excellence in theological education, we intentionally foster character formation within contexts that are both practical and reflective.

Our Values

Relationships

We commit ourselves to loving relationships with God, one another and the world. Expressed in a communal life of worship, learning and ministry, we foster good communication and healthy relationships characterised by compassion, grace, justice, mercy and mutual accountability. The community is global and diverse, encompassing people of many nations, cultures and denominations. In Christ-Likeness we are servant-hearted, transformed by the Spirit who empowers us to live out our faith wherever we are found.

Excellence

We strive for excellence in all aspects of our college life: our worship and service, our academic teaching, scholarship and research, our governance, communication and administration and our practice of ministry and mission. Our hope is to enable every person within our community to realise their potential and become the women and men they are created to be.

Learning

We are committed to acquire godly wisdom, knowledge and experience as we creatively research, reflect, and develop together. We strive to be creative in our modes and methods of delivering education and learning, professional in our research and practice and passionate about nurturing a desire for life-long learning and professional development.
