Inspired By Excellence & Innovation

We offer a wide range of high quality of teaching and extra-curricular activities.

Welcome to Knox School of Theology Uganda located in Mbale, Uganda. If you are looking for a school with sound theological commitments, then we invite you to consider Knox School of Theology Uganda as a place where you will receive the best undergraduate theological education in East Africa.

Our final authority in this endeavor is Holy Scripture. Everything we seek to do will be placed under the ultimate authority of the scriptures. Also, we believe that the best expression of the gospel love found in the Scriptures is developed in historic Reformed creeds and thus we are committed to these confessions for guidance and direction.

We are thoroughly committed to historic Christian and Protestant theology, but we welcome students from every tradition, and we look forward to the contributions of all our students from various backgrounds.

WHERE WE STARTEDWHERE WE ARE HEADING

We are thoroughly committed to historic Christian and Protestant theology, but we welcome students from every tradition, and we look forward to the contributions of all our students from various backgrounds. As such we plan to create a Christian academic community of scholars and students who love God and who love each other. Like the woman at the well in John 4 who ran to tell all her friends and her community about Jesus, we hope our students will graduate from KSTU with such a burning love for Jesus that they cannot remain silent, but like this Samaritan woman whose heart was bursting with love for God, they go forth to tell everyone they know of the love of Jesus Christ.

VIEW OUR STATEMENT OF FAITH

The triune God: We believe that there is only one true and living God and that there are three persons in the Godhead, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; and that these three are one God, the same in substance, equal in power and glory. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit deserve our worship.

The Holy Scripture: We believe in the Holy Bible as inspired word of God, without error in the original autographs.

Reformed theology: We believe that the Reformed theology as set forth in Reformed confessions including Westminster Confession of Faith and in both Larger and Shorter Catechisms is the system of doctrine taught in scripture, and therefore, is to be learned, taught, and proclaimed for the propagation of the faith and for the evangelization of the world by the power of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

WHY WE EXIST

  • MOTTO – “To know God and to make him known.”

  • MISSION – “We pursue our mission by committing ourselves “To offer historical and Reformed theology to equip students for holistic ministry, faithful shepherds of the church, preachers of the word of God, and faithful ministers of the sacraments.”

  • VISION – The vision of KSTU is “To be a premier Reformed educational school focused on Biblical Christianity for gospel faithfulness.”

TRAINING DISTINCTIONS

Our curriculum is designed to be cultivated in an attitude of spiritual devotion to the Word of God and also something to be done for glory of God. Therefore, academics should be of the highest quality.

Students should leave KSTU with a serious commitment to the centrality of the church and public worship as an essential part of our Christian’s faith.

The essential focus of all the studies at KSTU is to be biblical, exegetical, Reformed in its theological, expositional and practical in nature. Special attention is giving to the 16th century Reformation as a way to retrace our roots in the Bible.

Careful attention is to be devoted to the cultivation of Christian character qualities, with an aim to transform their worldview and faithfulness which are essential for godly living, for leadership and ministry and for effective involvement in serving others for Christ.

Each course at KSTU is to include significant focus on the faithful preaching of the word of God, which is Christ-centered and soul-satisfying, and the faithful ministering of the sacraments.
