The accrediting agencies listed are not recognized by the Federal government. Their counseling programs have a connection to the National Christian Counselors Association (NCCA) that has been suspect over the years.

NCCA issues licenses in pastoral counseling that imply state approval. This is not true. The last I checked only two states, North Carolina and Maine license pastoral counselors.

The courses one needs to take to complete a degree are not listed, neither is the faculty credentials.

This may give one a pretty good education, I don't know at this point. I would guess if one is not concerned about accreditation and only wants a cheap theological, it may suffice. Requirements for ordination may not be met at this school for denominational ministry. Independent ministry may accept these credits.

Finally able to download catalog. PDF is slow for me.

I do see a list of faculty. Seems a number have their highest degrees from Faith, not a good sign.

The course required for each degree, however, appear to be very comprehensive.
