Full Gospel Ministerial Board
What is FGMB?
The Full Gospel Ministerial Board was founded and established in 2010 by Bishop Marshall Cross. TFGMB is registered with National Records of Scotland (NRS) and offers individuals who sense a call to ministry the opportunity to explore their calling, to study theology and to obtain ministry credentials. As well as individuals, we also offer ministries and Churches the opportunity to network together with us for relationship, accountability and input from the founder and the ministry board.
What is the process
We believe that being part of TFGMB is more than just a paperwork exercise and we emphasise the need for relationship. The individual, ministry or Church interested in exploring the process would reach out to the founder in the first instance. If it was mutually agreeable then an application would be submitted to the board and the founder and board would then meet to pray and discuss the application. If the applicant and board wish to proceed, then the individual (or the lead of the ministry or Church) would become a ‘probationary minister.’ This status would remain in place for approximately six months (at least) while the candidate, founder and the board journey together building relationship and fulfilling all the requirements for credentials (a bespoke process). During the process the candidate will have the opportunity to build relationship with the founder and board, study for an accredited Certificate in Christian Ministry and obtain ordination.
Bible College
At TFGMB we have partnered with Revelation Bible College (UK) to offer a subsidised, correspondence course in theology at certificate level. The course takes approximately six months to complete and lectures take place once a week on zoom. Due to the nature of the flexibility of the course it can be studied from anywhere in the world, as long as there is a good internet connection and if for any reason a lecture is missed then a recorded copy is sent to the candidate. The course is already subsidised for TFGMB and there are payment plans available. Studying theology at a ‘Spirit Filled’ Bible college is a unique experience and we offer flexibility. The specific arrangement for this course is unique to TFG and students will have a physical graduation at the end. After the process, an ordination date and ceremony will be set and the candidate will be publicly ordained. (All of our ordained ministers have the full legal authorisation to officiate at weddings etc)
