Equipping Saints For Ministry (ES4M) exists to glorify God by training indigenous pastors, lay leaders, and missionaries to be fully equipped with a mature knowledge of God’s word.
ES4M desires to combat the ever growing need for theological training around the world. ES4M seeks to meet this need by providing training and resources to indigenous pastors, lay leaders, and missionaries in third-world countries.
