ORIGIN OF THE SCHOOL
In the 1990's several preachers from the area were meeting every Saturday teaching classes to members of the several congregations who were interested in more knowledge and training in the Scriptures. Several meetings were conducted to consider and plan a full-time school with Roland Cumbee, Joseph Barr, Billy McVey, Braker Carter, Larry Williams, Halbert Tucker and Melvin Sapp being present. The school opened its doors in January of 1995 at the central location of Kingstree. In July of 2001 the regents unanimously agreed to moved the school to Sumter, South Carolina.
CCSP is staffed with eight gospel preachers who each have over 25 years of preaching experience. This work is overseen by the two elders of the Kingsbury Road church of Christ and is housed in the church property. We have been training men for the ministry since January of 1995.
Classes are held Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Our curriculum consists of sixty-four, three hour courses that cover every book of the Bible and dozens of courses related to the ministry. The students are at the school thirty hours per week and a minimum of ten hours of outside study weekly. Thus, they are unable to hold jobs, but are in need of support from friends of the school.
