"The expansion into a doctoral level education adds a vital new dimension to Tyndale's capacity to fulfill its mission of educating and equipping leaders for service to the church and the world."
— Dr. Brian C. Stiller, Chancellor, Tyndale University College & Seminary

"This advanced degree gives opportunity for leaders to develop in three key areas: their personal and spiritual development; delivery of effective ministry strategies, and field-based research relevant to ministry."
— Dr. Janet Clark, Academic Dean, Tyndale Seminary

"The leadership theme for Tyndale’s Doctor of Ministry is understood in a broad sense. We will have people in our program focusing on issues of spirituality, multi-culture ministry, worship, education, pastoral care, ministry with particular groups, organizational leadership, and so on."
—Dr. Paul Bramer, Director of Doctor of Ministry program

"Tyndale's DMin program will guide the participant in doing intensive research into their ministry context, offer a collegial learning context and cohort, expose them and their ministry context to current Canadian and International leaders, and encourage a deepened level of spiritual and personal renewal and formation."
—Carla Nelson, Director of Education, Tyndale University College

"We have never had as much access to ministry and organizational leadership resources. However, we continue to flounder in our delivery. Tyndale Seminary's new Doctor of Ministry is designed to address this with a workable, integrated approach involving solid research, personal leadership formation, strategy development, and ministry execution that makes a difference. This programs deserves serious consideration for the Christian leader who wants to sharpen their saw."
—Michael B. Pawelke, Sr. Pastor, Compass Point Bible Church

"One of the purposes of the DMin degree program is to provide an opportunity for parish ministers to bring years of practice into focus in a disciplined, coherent program of advanced study and reflection. Tyndale has thoughtfully crafted a program that offers its students a variety of means to enhance professional skills in a dialogical process that integrates the advantages of the work setting with the resources of the academic community."
—Dr. Louis Charles Willard, Director, Accreditation and Institutional Evaluation, Association of Theological Schools (ATS)

"A DMin at Tyndale: whetstone for the ministerial mind."
—Dr. Guy Hanson, long term DMin Director, Princeton Theological Seminary.

"We are standing at this transition where Christian leaders need to re-vision leadership, renew mindsets, and reset our focus so we are able to meet the unexplored requirements of being God’s faithful servant within this postmodern world. I look forward to this DMin program to prepare us to be people who are spiritually in tune with God living under His constant direction; as well as being sharpened as gifted and skilled persons of influence amongst others."
—Maymie Lau, Investment advisor Bank of Montreal and prospective DMin student

"Having spent many years in interesting and rewarding roles in the corporate and public sectors, I now have the privilege of consulting with many Christian organizations and coaching their leaders. While I'm fairly confident in my knowledge base around organizational development, adult learning, H.R. and leadership issues, from my past academic studies and work experience, I know I'm vulnerable and rely more on my personal experience and "instinct" when it comes to translating these concepts to ministries that are 'building God's kingdom' and those who have committed their lives to this work.

When I learned that Tyndale was introducing a DMin program with a focus on theologically-grounded inquiry into ministry practice, and developing, implementing and assessing the outcomes of ministry strategies - I was most excited. As well, the format of the curriculum will enable me keep working and applying my learning. I am convinced that this was a nudge from the Lord to 'improve my serve' and look forward to applying to be part of the first class."
