What is the relationship of the NJ School of Ministry and the local church?

We like to look at it from the head, heart, and hands training model. The NJ School of Ministry will primarily focus on the head, but to form a Christian life fully involves a person's heart and hands as well by participating in a local church community to round out the development. Here's how that works!
