The purpose of MINTS (Miami International Seminary) is to lead the world for Christ by preparing Christian leaders for ministry in their countries. As a mission organization, MINTS International Seminary uses higher education as its primary tool to fulfill this vision. The ministry exists to establish financially self-sufficient, indigenous owned-and-operated training centers/seminaries in the language and culture of the local people. They work with national believers to develop regionally sensitive curricula in their languages, to develop future professors from among them, and to share the results of their studies throughout the interconnected global system. Key to the missionary purpose of Miami International Seminary is the requirement that centers multiply in their regions, languages, and spheres of influence.
