Looking across the globe, our hearts are touched with the plight of women, especially those in the Developing World. After much prayer and perseverance, Women of the World is reaching out to help needy communities, both spiritually and physically.
God loves people, and He desires to save their natural lives and their eternal souls. We want to help restore people in every area of life. From this perspective, the Community Development BOKS was created as a tool to help with basic human needs.
Just like the ISOM, we draw on instructors’ life messages and areas of expertise. What has been captured is practical, life-skill knowledge from a hands-on, professional perspective.

TISOM New Program in Progress
One of the greatest needs on the harvest fields is the raising up of effective leaders and other ministries. The International School of Ministry (ISOM) is designed to turn local churches all over the world into ministry training centers. This program empowers national pastors to raise up leadership for ministry work and church-planting in their own local contexts. Jesus called us to make disciples and not simply to win souls. Our program is being developed in over 50 languages and might be called the training and discipleship equivalent of the Jesus film.
International School of Ministry, with FMI Tagaytay is pleased to cooperate in expanding the ISOM training in the Philippines. ISOM is well known in the Manila area and therefore will be more quickly spread and accepted in smaller towns and villages. The International training program consists of setup, administrative oversight, onsite class-leader training, international teachers on VCD with native language plus English, and live visiting teachers.
Currently, the program consists of 5 Trimesters (or semesters) of training. Each Trimester is 12 weeks long and requires 3-6 hours of class time per week (not including lab work). Preferably, the classes will be held during the week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays plus credit for extracurricular activities or lab work. After the completion of 3 Trimesters (or 1 year) students would be eligible for a 1 year Certificate. After two years (or 5 Trimesters) of classes students are eligible for a 2 year Associate Diploma.
The International Training Classes will be set up providing all administrative materials, the training of class-leaders, all notes and exams in Tagalog & English, as well as all forms necessary for advertisement, registration and record keeping. Thus, local church and pastors are enabled to have their own training programs to raise up new leadership more quickly than ever before.
As a part of the program each student is required to participate in lab/internship activities that will assist the local church in it’s various departments and activities (i.e. Children’s church, visitation, administration, cleanup, etc.). All activities and classes go towards credit to obtain a certificate or diploma. All administrative details for operating the Training Center come with a full package of materials from International School of Ministry, with David Grubbs. This includes application forms, advertising fliers & brochures, master copy of class notes, worksheets, mid-term and final exams, score keys, grade report and attendance reporting forms, etc. If students are working towards a Certificate or Diploma there is an easy way for teachers or class leaders to send all attendance and grade records by email.

Pathway to a Bachelors Degree Program
Welcome
The testimonies worldwide from ISOM students and schools have been staggering. The original 5 Trimesters (now the ISOM Core) continue to strengthen and grow the Body of Christ in many languages and nations, and new Regional Centers representing ISOM open nearly every month. The vision to turn churches into training centers, and then into church-planting centers, is taking root across denominations, church movements, and even people groups.
With this success, and with tens of thousands of ISOM students who have now graduated from the ISOM Core, many have asked for more revelation teaching that will help them deepen their faith. It is this demand, coupled with a mandate from God to mature His Church that has compelled us to develop new materials beyond the original ISOM Core.
Pathway to a Bachelors Degree Program
Over the last few years, ISOM has recorded more than 100 new sessions of material, plus we have partnered with other key equipping ministries to bring 9 new Modules of material into our ISOM lineup. Each new module has been designed with a similar structure and layout as our original five ISOM Core Trimesters. These new 32-session Modules may be similar structurally for ease of use, but are different from the original ISOM Core in that many of them explore a specific area of ministry, or are the teachings of a single ministry leader.
In addition, as students and leaders proceed down this advanced path of training and discipleship, a Bachelor-level degree is being offered by our current partner institutions: Covenant Theological Seminary, Christian Leadership Seminary and Vision International University.
These new Modules, in conjunction with partnering ministries and training institutions, provide ISOM graduates worldwide with a Pathway to a Bachelor’s degree, and a means to lay hold of their calling in a new and practical way.
Participating in the ProgramWe encourage any ISOM school or individual student to complete the Pathway to the Bachelors Program. Pathway to a Bachelors requirements:
You need to take: ISOM Core
Trimester 1
Trimester 2
Trimester 3
Trimester 4
Trimester 5
plus any 5 of the following:
(Click module title for more details)
Ministry ModuleThis module is the recommended starting point for all those entering the Pathway to the Bachelors program. Without question, it contains some of the strongest materials that ISOM has yet produced, and brings forth vital messages from veteran teachers. Presented with practical wisdom and Spirit-led insight, topics include: how to prepare a sermon, hearing God’s voice, the role of prophecy and the prophet in the New Testament, and capturing the heart of God for ministry.
Miracle Living ModuleDr. A.L. Gill, lovingly referred to by many as “Papa Gill”, has been a favorite teacher of ISOM students worldwide through his teaching on Supernatural Living in Trimester 1. The demand for more revelation teaching from him has been enormous – and now ISOM students get 32 new, dynamic sessions! In one course, God’s Provisions for Healing, he demonstrates how to pray for the sick in an extraordinary and practical way. This entire module is taught in Papa Gill’s vintage supernaturally-natural style.
Essential WOW ModuleWomen of the World was originally developed to equip and train women around the world, but many of the courses were also relevant to men. Drawing from the two WOW modules, WOW Essential chooses content that is relevant both to men and women, including life-messages from Darlene Zschech, Joyce Meyer, Marilyn Hickey, Pat Harrison and Gloria Copeland. Note: the original WOW Volumes 1 & 2 are also eligible toward a degree, though students may complete either 1 and/or 2, or Essentials, but not all 3, since Essentials contains courses from both Vol. 1 and 2.
Understanding Islam ModuleProbably the greatest challenge facing Western Christianity and world missions is the rising influence of Islam. i2 Ministries, headed by Dr. Joshua Lingel, has produced an apologetics training resource for Christians to engage Muslims. Condensed from i2 Ministries’ own program with over 90 hours of university-level teaching, we have consolidated the top 10 teachers into a 30-session module. The goal is to equip Christians to effectively reach Muslims for Christ, providing understanding and answers for many common questions.
Nation to Nation ModuleThis exciting module includes contributions from some of the finest instructors from Elim Bible Institute in Lima, New York. The courses bring forth revelation in the areas of marriage and the family, personal loss, victorious living, and a wonderful overview of the Book of Romans. World Impact Now (WIN) Ministries, headed by Brick Cliff, produced this series.
Messenger ModuleJohn Bevere is not only a best-selling, prolific author, but is also a well-respected teacher. His few courses in the ISOM Core have had a lasting effect on students worldwide, showing his heart to equip and train believers globally. When he heard about the Pathway to the Bachelors, he wanted to provide further impartation into ISOM students. This module includes 3 classic Bevere series: Extraordinary, Driven by Eternity and Breaking Intimidation. The teachings were produced by Bevere’s Messenger International ministry. Note: Messenger Module requires $175 DVDs regardless of the number of students.
Messianic ModuleIt is highly recommended that ongoing ministry students have the opportunity to understand the Hebraic roots of their Christian faith. Who better to spearhead this emphasis than Rev. Perry Stone and his Voice of Evangelism ministry? Using amazing and creative props, Perry Stone and others make Jewish and Biblical history come alive. Additional courses were also recorded and added by ISOM to round out this fascinating new module.
Supernatural Architecture ModuleRequirement for a degree from VIU
This module is produced by Vision International University. Dr. Stan DeKoven is the founder and president of Vision and has been connected to ISOM since its inception. The strong distinctive of VIU is their solid academic approach to the Christian faith and to ministry building. This module captures introductory teachings in subjects like hermeneutics, New Testament Greek, the doctrine of Christ, and many others.
Spiritual Intimacy ModuleRequirement for a degree from CLS
This Module is produced by Christian Leadership Seminary, and taught solely by Dr. Mark Virkler, Academic Dean of CLS, and a prolific author. His hands-on teaching style and publications centered on How to Hear God’s Voice have impacted countless Christians worldwide. He is known for having an emphasis on a learning style that includes personal encounter and revelation, where the classroom is not separated from life (Lamad Education). In this module he covers such topics as Dream Interpretation, Emotional Healing and Spirit-Anointed Teaching.
