Empowered Inside
The Urban Ministry Institute
Testimony Ministries is a satellite campus for incarcerated students who are pursuing theological education and hands-on ministry training. The Urban Ministry Institute is a 3-4 Seminary Level Educational Program that provides in person instruction and access to higher education through offering credits that are transferrable to participating Christian colleges and seminaries.
Prepared 4 Purpose
We provide peer to peer mentorship and leadership development to build safe, supportive, and stable relationships that empower peer leaders to transform the culture of their community for good wherever they are. In the process we invite them to begin to practice rhythms of freedom to become prepared for purpose.
Liberation Library
Testimony Ministries encourages and provides reading books that educate, encourage, and equip our community for liberation. We offer an annual book club for select ministry partners and incarcerated learners to build community together through reading and dialogue around books that promote liberation.
