Something is stirring in you. We believe that's God.
Maybe it's a quiet pull you've been carrying for months — the sense that there's more. More depth in your faith. More to discover in Scripture. More to give from what God has placed inside you. Maybe you've felt a call you can't fully name yet, just a restlessness that won't settle.

That's exactly who Port City Leadership Institute is for.

At Port City Church, we take seriously the charge in Ephesians 4:11–12 — to equip the body for the work of the ministry. PCLI isn't a program. It's a journey we take together, a deliberate and Spirit-led investment in the people God is shaping for something greater. Whether you're stepping toward vocational ministry or simply determined to go deeper in your walk with God, this is your invitation.
In your first year, you'll take ten courses:
  • Synoptic Gospels: The Life and Teachings of Christ (BIB 112)
  • Introduction to Hermeneutics: How to Interpret the Bible (BIB 121)
  • New Testament Survey (BIB 212)
  • Old Testament Survey (BIB 214)
  • Spirit-Empowered Church: An Acts 2 Ministry Model (MIN 171)
  • Relationships and Ethics in Ministry (MIN 181)
  • Beginning Ministerial Internship (MIN 191)
  • Introduction to Pentecostal Doctrine (THE 114)
  • Assemblies of God History, Missions, and Governance (THE 142)
  • Introduction to Theology: A Pentecostal Perspective (THE 211)

These aren't just classes. They're tools — crafted to root you deeper in God's Word and sharpen the gifts He's already placed in your hands.

Through our partnership with Pathway (pathway.training), PCLI offers a hybrid of online and in-person learning, designed to meet you where you are and give you the richest experience possible. You'll learn alongside others who are asking the same questions, feeling the same fire, and taking the same bold step.

Don't wait for the calling to feel more certain. Take the step. We'll take it together. Our first class will begin April 1st.
