90% of pastors have no formal theological
education,
a
specialist
in
theological
education in the Global South has told an
international consultation.
Dr Manfred Kohl, who has experience in
supporting and financing ministry training,
explained
that
for
this
reason he
funds
only people – and not buildings. He also
challenges institutions and their funders to
think
radical
thoughts about
theological
education.
