Preferred term

Interdenominational Theological Center  

Definition

  • The educational ministry of the Interdenominational Theological Center (ITC) to African American people in general and the Black church in particular should be viewed in several larger contexts. These include interinstitutional cooperation among African American schools of higher learning, ecumenical ministry among the historic Black denominations and the African American constituencies of historic predominantly White denominations, and the relevance of graduate theological education of Christian leaders for ministry and service in the church and the global community.
