For anyone (aged 18+) who believes there’s more with God & is ready to step into it no matter your background or season of life. For those who are hungry to pursue Jesus, live authentically in community, be equipped for Kingdom impact & are willing to dedicate 8 weeks for the sake of seeing revival in their hearts, in Philly, & beyond.
Not at all. CRMI isn’t just for church leaders but for anyone who wants to follow Jesus more closely. The gospel isn’t meant to stay inside church walls, so whatever season you’re in…student, parent, professional, creative, entrepreneur, or retired, CRMI equips you to live out your faith fully, without a line between sacred & secular.
You'll be in 3 core classes that will run the entire length of the program:
1. Biblical Foundations Studies
2. Gospel Theology
3. 5-Fold Ministry Masterclasses
In these classes you'll deepen your understanding of Scripture & theology through intentional teaching & study, while also growing in intimacy with Jesus & clarity about your identity in Him.
You'll also be equipped with hands on ministry & leadership skills that will build confidence to live boldly & bring the gospel into every sphere of life...your workplace, your family, your friendships, with strangers & wherever else the Lord calls you.
You’ll deepen your faith, mature in a community of passionate believers, and learn practical ways to live out the gospel in your at home, at work, and everywhere in between.
We want you to expect freedom from things that have been holding you back from greater intimacy with Jesus & grow in confidence of your identity in Him.
Meeting all program requirements will require 10-15hrs per week.

We anticipate having students in all stages of life, some working in addition to school, some moving here, etc. & understand this will require sacrifices. We honor those sacrifices in advance.
No, housing is the responsibility of the student.
We will offer resources, guidance, & local contacts to help you find a place to stay and get settled.
