Organized by

The Sovereign Grace Pastors College is based in Louisville, Kentucky, led by Jeff Purswell, Director of Theology and Training for Sovereign Grace Churches.

It is a 10 month academic program with a very specific purpose: We exist to train pastors.

More specifically, we exist to train pastors whose lives and families and churches are built upon the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our graduates are equipped to serve and to lead churches that proclaim the gospel and demonstrate its reality through transformed lives and vibrant witness.

Our program can be best summed up by the Scripture verse we include on our diplomas: “Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers” (1 Timothy 4:16, NIV).
