PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY PESM S MISSION 2 The Pacific Evangelical School of Ministry is a graduate school of theology within the evangelical, Wesleyan-Arminian tradition. The mission is to provide graduate-level, theological education for persons preparing for Christian service. While a key goal is to help The Evangelical Church in the preparation of its ministers, PESM is open to evangelicals from other denominations seeking graduate education for their call to ministry. PESM seeks to nurture the spiritual life of its students through the classes offered, through the mentoring program and the daily chapels. The desired outcome is people who are competently prepared to fulfill their calling and their role in ministering to the body of Christ. Dr. Bill Vermillion with Rev. Winston Thurton WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY 4 RATIONALE The idea of The Pacific Evangelical School of Ministry was born from the prayers and deliberation of the Pacific Conference Board of Ministry. The initial discussion resulted from the Board s role as a gatekeeper for the denomination. How best do we provide Christian workers who know, adhere, preach, and teach faithfully the doctrine of The Evangelical Church? In the months which followed, the Board pursued meetings with Western Evangelical Seminary, the Annual Conference, and ministerial candidates. The result is an extended program of theological education designed to fulfill both the Conference Course of Study and the Alternate Graduate Level Study Program (See 555.c.). State Approval This school is a nonprofit corporation authorized by the State of Oregon to offer and confer the academic degree described herein, following a determination that state academic standards will be satisfied under OAR 583-030. Inquiries concerning the standards or school compliance may be directed to the Office of Degree Authorization, Higher Education Coordinating Commission, 775 Court St. NE, Salem, OR 97301.

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY TRANSFER of CREDIT FROM PESM to OTHER SCHOOLS Transfer of credit is always at the discretion of the receiving school, generally depends on comparability of curricula, and may depend on comparability of accreditation. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

ACADEMIC CATALOG COMMUNITY BUILDING With an intense program, community building is difficult. Consequently, enrollment in the degree program means the student will stay on campus. Chapel, colloquia times, lunches, and dinners serve as community building events. Participation is required. 7 STUDENT SERVICES COUNSELING All of the professors are available for student counseling. It is highly recommended that the student be in contact with his/her denominational board dealing with ordination or certification. This is vital for a place of service and ministry following graduation from PESM. 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015 Dr. Mark Weinert

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY 8 HEALTH CARE PESM does not offer any health care programs. The student is advised to maintain his/her health care though his/her current line of work or that of a spouse. PLACEMENT The student is strongly advised to be in contact with his/her denominational board dealing with the placement of pastors. PESM will be happy to supply the student with references from the faculty. HOUSING In light of the fact that students are resident for classes at PESM for only three or four days at a time, PESM does not have any permanent housing. PESM makes arrangements with a local motel for the students to stay in while attending classes. Students are required to stay at the motel during the class sessions. MEALS The noon meal is catered for the students and faculty. It is served in the Activity Center located at Valley View Evangelical Church. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

The Student can often secure these books from the Christian Book Distributors (1-800-247-4784) www.christianbook.com or purchase them through your local Christian book store. Some students have purchased them through Amazon.com. The dean will supply the students with the syllabi by the first of August. This will show what books need to be secured for each class. 9 Dr. Carl Duhrkoop LIBRARY PESM maintains a library at the Valley View Evangelical Church site. There are currently 6,000 volumes in this library. The students can check out books or search on line to learn what books are available.

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY ATTENDANCE 14 Given the intensive nature of the courses both in content and class time, the student is expected to attend every session. In the event of an emergency, the student is responsible for contacting the professor(s). If the professor is unavailable, the student may contact the Dean or Registrar. The student is responsible for class content which he/she misses. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

ACADEMIC CATALOG One unexcused absence will place the student on probation. Two unexcused absences will result in automatic dismissal. LIBRARY A core theological library of 6000 volumes has been collected in addition to appropriate software. The student will supplement these resources with regional libraries. 15 ETHICAL BEHAVIOR Since this is a School of Ministry, students are expected to conduct themselves in the highest standard of ministry. See paragraph 591 of the 2006 Discipline of The Evangelical Church. Acceptance and enrollment in the school constitutes willing agreement by the student to abide by this Handbook and the other rules of the school. Violations of this standard such as lying, cheating and plagiarism, will result in suspension and probably dismissal. See Due Process, Section 4. Wise financial stewardship is a crucial area for the minister. Students are expected to keep their bills current. 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY REQUIREMENTS for GRADUATION 16 DEGREE STUDENTS Successful passing of all the courses (30 semester hours) will result in the awarding of the Master of Ministry degree. NON-DEGREE STUDENTS Successful completion of all the courses (30 semester hours) will result in the awarding of a Certificate of Ministry. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

COURSE CATALOG GRADING Students will receive a letter grade upon completion of the course. A+ = 97-100 A = 93-96 A- = 90-92 B+ = 87-89 B = 83-86 B- = 80-82 C+ = 77-79 C = 73-76 C- = 70-72 D+ = 67-69 D = 63-66 D- =60-62 17 A = 4.0, B = 3.0, C = 2.0, D = 1.0, F = 0 A student must maintain a 2.5 GPA average to successfully matriculate.

DUE PROCESS In the event there is a conflict involving the 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY 18 course professor, the student is to follow the principles set forth in Matthew 18. First, the student is to privately discuss his concerns with the professor. Second, if step one does not reach satisfactory resolution either the professor or the student may appeal to the Dean. The Dean will select one student and one faculty member to be on a panel he/she chairs. Matthew 18:15-17 (NIV) 15 If your brother or sister sins, go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. 16 But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. 17 If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector. Third, if step two is not satisfactory to either party, the student or professor may appeal to the Board of Ministry. Their decision is final. There is no further appeal. Similar steps are to be followed in conflicts with students or administration. In all cases the Board of Ministry is the final court of appeal. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

ACADEMIC CATALOG COURSE STRUCTURE Yearlong courses are set up to be equivalent to a one-semester class. The expectation for a one-semester hour class is 15 class/seat hours. In this intensive program, the classes are supplemented by local-area student-led colloquia. 19 Homework expectations are two hours of work for every hour of class time. Hence, a student pursuing a full load of 10 hours should anticipate spending 300 hours on homework. Faculty has been instructed that the guiding rules at the school regarding homework are: Text/collateral reading, 25 pages = 1 hour 10 page paper with research = 25 hours 5 page reaction paper = 10 hours Thus a three-hour class with a homework load of 90 hours might require: 2 10-page papers= 50 hours 1000 pp. text and collateral reading = 40 hours 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY INCOMPLETE 20 Class work should be completed by March 31. An Incomplete I grade may be granted by a Professor, together with approval of the Dean/ Registrar, if the student incurs illness or unpreventable and unforeseeable circumstances inhibiting his/her ability to meet course requirements on time. The work must be completed by the 15th of August for the I to be changed to another grade. When the Professor submits his/her grades, he/she must indicate what grade the student would receive if the student does not complete his/her work by the above date. To remove an Incomplete, a student may retake the course when it is again offered by PESM. A student can also remove the Incomplete by retaking the course as an independent study with the approval of the dean and the professor. Should the student have more than one Incomplete, he/she may only work on one Incomplete at a time. The student will be responsible for the regular fees for the retake or the fees for an independent study. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

COURSE CATALOG COURSE DESCRIPTIONS BIB 500 OLD TESTAMENT WITH INDUCTIVE STUDY This course combines a basic introduction to the canonical Old Testament with a study of hermeneutics. In the introduction emphasis, items of a critical nature such as authorship, dating, audience, and purpose are considered. However, primary focus is on a study of the contents of the canonical text, its cultural background, and its relationship with the New Testament. In the hermeneutics emphasis, the primary focus is on learning and practicing the inductive approach to scriptures. 23 CHT 500 CHURCH HISTORY SURVEY This course surveys the history of Christianity from the age of the apostles to the end of the twentieth-first century, with primary emphasis on the teachings and life of the church. Each of the major periods in the history of the church is examined for ways in which they have influenced and shaped the church of the twentieth-first century. Special attention is given to the American church, the milieu in which the 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY Evangelical Church has been shaped. Rev. Nancy Austin 24 CED 500 CHRISTIAN EDUCATION This course will be a discovery of the big picture of Christian Education (CE) Ministry within the local church. It will expose the student to the biblical, theological, philosophical and psychological rational for a quality CE ministry. It is required as foundational for all students entering the general church ministry and for those specializing in CE ministry in particular. PST 500 CHURCH GROWTH This course is designed to introduce the student to the theological and methodological principles underlying the growth of the church in relation to societal structures. It examines the reasons for growth as well as lack of growth. Each student is expected to become familiar with church growth on the American scene and to do a study of the growth of a church (congregation) or a conference of churches. The course has as an objective the imparting of church growth eyes to each student. SFD 500 WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

ACADEMIC CATALOG DEVOTIONAL LIFE: MENTOR This course is designed to introduce the student to spiritual formation and development through the disciplines of reading, praying, journaling and mentoring. BIB 501 NEW TESTAMENT WITH INDUCTIVE STUDY This course combines a basic introduction to the canonical New Testament with a study of hermeneutics. In the introduction emphasis, items of a critical nature such as authorship, dating, audience, and purpose are considered. However, primary focus is on a study of the contents of the canonical text, its cultural background, and its relationship with the Old Testament. In the hermeneutics emphasis, the primary focus is on learning and practicing the inductive study approach to scriptures. 25 CHT 502 THEOLOGY/DOCTRINE OF CHRISTIAN HOLINESS The doctrine of Christian holiness is examined, emphasizing scriptural teachings concerning the doctrine, experience, and the life of the believer. Readings examine those teachings from an historical perspective, from the Wesleyan 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY Arminian tradition, and from current literature. It is a doctrine to be believed, an experience to be received, and a life to be lived. 26 COU 500 PASTORAL CARE AND COUNSELING This course provides the ministry student with basic material and skills to enable Biblical counseling and pastoral care in the local church context. The course is intended to be extremely practical. Three major emphases are: 1. Solution-based counseling; 2. Life-issues viewed from a Biblical perspective; and 3. Development/acquisition of tools necessary to provide the pastor a foundation for pastoral care and counseling ministry. Dr. Darrell Mischler LDR 500 LEADERSHIP/PASTORAL THEOLOGY This course is designed to introduce the student to pastoral theology/leadership. It is intended that the student will develop a mentoring relationship with an approved pastor/mentor. Spiritual formation and development WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

ACADEMIC CATALOG is a lifelong process, as the student continues to develop the disciplines of reading, praying, journaling, and mentoring. Rev. David LeRud BIB 502 BIBLICAL STUDY WITH INDUCTIVE STUDY Biblical Studies enhance one s inductive Bible study skills by the in-depth study of an Old Testament book and a New Testament book while increasing one s understanding of the central Biblical themes. This course also adds the dimension of study in the Biblical languages using both books and computer assisted aids. 27 PMW 500 WORSHIP IN THE LOCAL CHURCH This course is designed to help the student develop a theology of worship that will serve to guide personal worship and corporate worship leadership. Attention will be given to worship service planning and to practical issues related to contemporary church worship, including the use of music, prayer, drama, preaching, media, and sacraments. 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY 28 PST 501 CHURCH PLANTING This course is designed to introduce the student to the theological and methodological principles upon which church planting becomes a reality. It is designed to be practical but also motivational. The intent of this course is to put into the hands of a new church planter tools that will help him plant a church where none had existed before. PRE 500 PREACHING/WORSHIP This class is an introduction to biblical preaching. Students learn the basic elements of sermons, as well the types of sermons and how they are constructed in concert with the hermeneutical principle of inductive exegesis in order to produce expository preaching. Special attention is given to the use of story (the narrative paradigm) as a form of argumentation in preaching. Some practicum experiences in delivery and in class evaluation of sermons are included. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000

ACADEMIC CATALOG SFD 501 DEVOTIONAL LIFE: MENTOR This course is designed to further assist the student in the development of pastoral theology/leadership with a focus on planning the church year, casting vision for the church body, budgeting, and the structure necessary for a church to function effectively. It is also intended that the student will continue or develop a mentoring relationship with an approved pastor/mentor. A pastor needs to begin to disciple other people, so this course will focus on the disciple-making process. Spiritual formation and development is a lifelong process, so the student will continue or develop the disciplines of reading, praying, journaling, and mentoring. 29 BIB 503 BIBLICAL STUDY WITH TRIP TO ISRAEL Biblical studies enhanced by an on-site visit to key towns, places, and geography of biblical significance. In addition to the travel in Israel, there will be six lectures and a response paper for those who take the course for credit. This course will be offered every three to four years and may be taken in place of another of the BIB courses. 11501 SE SUNNYSIDE RD., SUITE 300 HAPPY VALLEY, OR 97015

PACIFIC EVANGELICAL SCHOOL of MINISTRY 30 PORTFOLIO DEMONSTRATING MASTERY OF MINISTRY The purpose for this portfolio is to serve as a mechanism to bring together the important things the student has learned at PESM. From each class the student is expected to write a paper of five to six pages containing the key ideas he/she wants to retain as a result of this course. For example out of the Pastoral Counseling course the student could write a paper on the procedure he/she would follow for pre-marital counseling or grief counseling. Out of the preaching course the student could lay out a preaching series on a book of Scripture or a theme. In the Inductive Bible Study courses a student could do an inductive study of a book of the Bible and present the key ideas found in that book which apply to the church today. A faculty person will be assigned as a student s mentor. This portfolio will be reviewed by the fellow students in the colloquia time, by the student s mentor, and by the faculty advisor. Review by the full-faculty will take place as necessary. WWW.PACIFICECNA.ORG/PESM 503 427 0000
