History of the Nepal Theological College
Discipleship Training
Centre (i.e. Nepal Theological College) was started in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal in 1978. This
college was started after 40 days of Bible Study
program. In the initial days, the college provided
three month of course on Bible subjects. The
students were mostly from Kathmandu and the
surrounding districts. Later in 1980, the college
extended its course from three months to ten months.
In 1981, with the beginning of Assemblies of God of
Nepal (AGN), Discipleship Training Centre was
recognized as a training centre of AGN. The first
formal graduation of Discipleship Training Centre
took place in September 1982 where five students
were graduated. In the year 1999, the college
started two years of Diploma in Theology program.
This program helped the student to understand a
deeper meaning of ministry. In 2005, this diploma
course was extended for three years. And from 2007
onwards the college started Bachelor of Theology
program. And now the college has been renamed as
Nepal Theological College.
Since many years Nepal
Theological College has helped the students to grow
more mature in Christ and has helped them to
understand the deep meaning of the Bible. As a
result, the students are able to do a great ministry
and are able to plant many churches all around the
country as well as outside. The students who passed
out of this college have been a great blessing in
the Christian field in sharing the gospel. |
