Course Fee And Schedule: Please note that this is a roundtable university course, not a church conference or seminar.

Students spend approximately 6-8 hours per week day (approx. 60-80 hours over the intensive) in study, reading or course session, but in a relaxing an informal atmosphere. In addition, some reading (approx. 3-4 books and some articles) beforehand is required, in books ranging across topics and the history of the church.

Our course fee is $2700 CDN (certificate fee, tuition, room and board at Dominion Hill, trainers and transportation while at the event).

Churches are asked to support their worship leader in attending this course.

Reviews can be found here. Some of today’s most influential worship leaders have attended our coursework, and are a part of our Institute community: Reviews.

AVAILABLE NOW

Sheltering Mercy and Endless Grace help us rediscover the rich treasures of the Psalms—through free-verse prayer renderings of their poems and hymns—as a guide to personal devotion and meditation. Sheltering Mercy helps the reader pray Psalms 1-75; Endless Grace leads in prayer through Psalms 76-150.

The church has always used the Psalms as part of its prayer life, and they have inspired countless other prayers. Each book contains 75 prayers drawn from the Book of Psalms, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning there. Each prayer is a response to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and welcome us into a safe place amid the storms of life.

These artful, poetic, and classic devotional books are a perfect gift, and feature compelling stunning illustrations and hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms. Co-written with Ryan Whitaker Smith, Brazos Publishing.
