In 2014 the Spirit of God challenged, Mark David Kennerly, a full time and senior pastor at Impact Christian Church in Virginia, to create a course to help followers of Jesus Christ build a foundation in the Word of God that would prepare them to serve Jesus anywhere in the world. Mark David was obedient and Perfecting the Saints for the Work of Ministry, aka Perfecting School was launched in 2015. Perfecting School has since graduated six classes, and ordained and affirmed dozens of servants of the Lord.
Phase One.

Phase Four. Kingdom-Culture School of the Arts. Combining Biblical/Kingdom instruction and Creative Arts training and development will prepare God’s people to glorify Him with the good and perfect gifts He has given them while blessing, entertaining, and enlightening whomever the Lord puts in their path.
