Leadership Training through The Italian Theological Academy

Impacting Italy Through Church Leaders

The Academy has its roots in our annual FOCUS conferences, where many pastors, elders, and deacons in the Italian church are exposed to sound preaching. Because these leaders had expressed a desire to learn how to teach in an expository way to their congregations, the School of Expository Preaching, a two-year course with 2 two-week modules, was developed in 2004.

Students from the school requested continued training, therefore, new courses are being added to ITA back field what now has become the Italian Theological Academy (although Expository Preaching remains our core program). A Systematic Theology Program, a Bible Survey Program, and a Biblical Counseling Program, all three-year courses with one-week modules, are now part of the Academy’s offerings. In addition to these programs, annual FOCUS conferences continue to provide insight and encouragement for those serving the church in Italy.

Aurora’s publishing ministry, which provides much-needed sermon preparation materials for Italian pastors, is now under the oversight of the Italian Theological Academy as well.
