Many pastors are discouraged. Many feel inadequate and untrained for the task that is set before them. Therefore, I want to transfer what God has put into my heart in over 50 years of ministry. I want to put that into the hearts of other pastors. With this in mind I have established the Adrian Rogers Pastor Training Institute.

The PTI Conferences

At The Adrian Rogers Pastor Training Institute, we believe every pastor needs to continue to grow in faith and be encouraged along the way. Focussing on daily ministerial tasks without sacrificing the importance of delivering a clearly, inspired message each week can sometimes feel a bit daunting. Few men are more qualified to teach pastors and encourage them in their preaching and church leadership than Dr. Adrian Rogers. His gentle, practical and inspiring messages have taught pastors worldwide on how to lead, preach and live a life of integirty in the ministry.

Pastors can be a part of this unique one-day multi-media learning experience. Recorded live in front of 120 pastors at Memphis, TN, in April 2005, Adrian Rogers’ wisdom and insights have been captured for posterity in pristine broadcast quality digital video.

  • Spend a remarkable day being mentored by a legendary pastor-teacher and a true man of God, Adrian Rogers.
  • Learn from Dr. Rogers how he led a growing, vibrant congregation
  • Learn preaching and sermon preparation skills from one of the greatest pulpiteers of all time
