Are you are a Pastor, Evangelist, Prophet, Missionary, Apostle, Teacher of the Word or a Leader of an active Christian Ministry, Faith Theological Institute and Seminary (FATIS) may be able to grant you Honorary Doctorate Degrees, if you meet the requirements.
What is the relevance of an Honorary Doctorate Degree in preaching the Word (Gospel)?
Faith Theological Institute and Seminary FATIS will offer Honorary Doctorate Degrees to people who have distinguished themselves in their ministries and communities. The Honorary Doctorate Degree is not earned, but deserved. It is given to well deserved persons who have contributed to the building of Churches, Ministries, Communities, the Nation and the cause of Christ in World Evangelism. Recipients of honorary degrees do not have to meet any of the typical requirements for a doctorate, such as passing examinations or completing a thesis. Rather, it is conferred on a person in recognition of his/her contribution and involvement in building of Churches, Ministries, Communities, the Nation and the cause of Christ in World Evangelism. The word "honorary" shows the degree is given in honor "Now we ask you, brothers, to give recognition to those who labor among you and lead you in the Lord and admonish you" 1 Thessalonians 5:12
Is an Honorary Degree equivalent to an Academic Degree?
An honorary degree is an academic degree for which a university (or other degree-awarding institution) waives the usual degree requirements.
Honorary degrees are conferred to honor people who have distinguished themselves in their ministries and communities, while academic degrees are earned on the completion of academic endeavors, which involves years of intensive study, scholarly articles for research or thesis/dissertation.
In conferring honorary degrees we seek to recognize extraordinary achievement, and to honor individuals whose accomplishments demonstrate both a transformative impact and standard of excellence such that they provide. The
