At the National School of Theology, we don’t just teach the Word — we raise up those called to proclaim, defend, and rightly divide it. As you explore this page, we invite you to watch our promotional video and listen to “The Mandate,” our theme song written to capture the heart, passion, and legacy of our founder, Dr. Orlando E. Short. The words aren’t just lyrics — they’re a testimony of a man’s unwavering commitment to equipping Kingdom leaders for the Great Commission. Every student carries a calling. Every sponsor fuels the mission. Will you partner with us in the Mandate?

Every Gift Begins with a Seed

That seed, your one-time sponsorship may seem small, but in God’s hands, it becomes part of something far greater. Whether it’s $10 or $1,000, your gift helps provide textbooks, training, and tuition support for students who are preparing to preach, teach, and lead with biblical integrity. For many of them, it’s not just financial help — it’s confirmation that they’re not walking this journey alone. Thank you for sowing into good ground. The harvest will speak for itself.

“Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown…” — 2 Corinthians 9:10 (KJV)
