WTC Theology

Who we are

WTC Theology is a pioneering theological college with a vision to integrate the best of scholarship with the power and gifts of the Holy Spirit to transform, heal, and release God’s people into His purposes for them.

WTC’s mission is to deliver transformational education within prophetic, worshipping and learning communities across the UK, in partnership with local churches.

Our culture and values

We are committed to the following values that inspire us in all our teaching, all our learning, and all our dealings with one another:

● A Gracious Orthodoxy – Working out our theology within an orthodox Trinitarian and biblically grounded faith, and maintaining rigorous scholarship characterised by diversity and freedom of theological expression.

● Servants and Leaders in Community – Fostering leadership in the home, church, and marketplace that is rooted in Christ-like service, forged within the community of believers, and shaped to serve God’s purposes.

● Participation in God’s Mission – Working for the transformation of society by participating in the call to proclaim the forgiveness and wholeness of the Kingdom of God in the UK and abroad, through social, economic, and political justice.

● Humanity as the Image of God – Maintaining a high view of humanity as made in God’s image, both female and male, and nourishing the beauty, uniqueness, interdependence, freedom, and creativity of humanity that we might live out our God-created purpose.

● Life Lived in Christ and the Spirit – Following Jesus Christ in the power of the Spirit, in both life and learning, to be transformed and equipped for discipleship and mission.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

WTC models the values it espouses and teaches:

● WTC teaches and models our value of gender equality. This past year, the college has had a ratio of 55:45 female to male students. 

● Currently three (of the four) the Senior Executive Team - Principal, FD and COO - are held by women; our Board consists of five women and three men; and 13 of the 34 Faculty members (38%) are women. Having women in leading roles and doing an excellent job is a powerful role model for female and male students, particularly in some sections of the church community where gender equality is not yet fully espoused.

● Our Principal has written several books on the theology of female:male relationships as taught in the Bible. This continues to raise the profile of WTC’s values, teaching and modeling in this area. She is regularly consulted by churches who are wishing to move away from a male dominated leadership structure.
