Porterbrook Omaha is a theological training program that helps Christians learn how to serve Jesus and his people better — whether they are church leaders, church planters, or everyday Christians wanting to deepen their theological understanding and become more mission-focused.

At its core, Porterbrook is a two-year, self-study theological training program. In the past, Coram Deo Church has hosted a “Learning Site” to facilitate the study of the Porterbrook material. As of summer 2016, we are switching to a true self-study structure. We will continue to make the Porterbrook material available, but students will be responsible to create their own structure and study rhythms.

Porterbrook is a great resource for church planters, pastors, leaders, and Christians desiring theological and missiological formation. Porterbrook is truly ‘theology for everyone.’
