Level Up Preaching Cohorts are primarily focused on preachers and parachurch leaders. We also include those who serve as associate ministers, student ministers, elders, and regular contributors to a church or parachurch preaching team.

Between the monthly group cohort meeting lasting 60-90 minutes and the one-on-one meeting with the mentor lasting around one hour, the total time commitment in Zoom meetings will be 2-3 hours per month. If the cohort member so chooses, there are also select preaching videos to watch, online articles to read, and practical exercises to explore.

Yes. CCL Level Up Cohorts are under the oversight and administration of Central Christian College of the Bible (CCCB). By completing, retaining, and submitting a portfolio of all assignments and activities, participants may be eligible to receive, upon an approved assessment, “Credit for Prior Learning,” which would count for one 3-hour graduate course toward the Master of Arts in Ministry Leadership at CCCB. (If you are interested in graduate credit, contact the Dean of the Russell School of Ministry at CCCB to work out a sufficient portfolio.)

Unexpected events will always impact your ministry schedule. Hopefully, that will be kept to a minimum. Your preaching mentor will work with you to keep you included in the cohort. If something happens that completely prevents you from participating in the future, please notify your preaching mentor, and we will adjust accordingly.
