Pontiac & Metro Detroit

Answer the Call. Get Equipped. Finish Strong.

There are moments in life when you know God is calling you to more—but you also know you need preparation, structure, and covering to walk it out well.

The Valor Christian College Leadership Cohort exists to help leaders, ministers, and believers in the Pontiac and Metro Detroit area take the next step with confidence, supported locally while pursuing a fully accredited education through Valor Christian College.

This cohort is not about pressure or performance.
It’s about formation, faithfulness, and finishing well.

SECTION 1: WHAT IS THE VALOR COHORT?
A Guided Pathway for Leaders Called to More

While coursework is completed online through Valor, this cohort provides:

  • Personal enrollment guidance

  • Academic planning support

  • Local community and accountability

  • Leadership development and spiritual covering

  • Ongoing encouragement through the journey

This is not a replacement for Valor.
This is a bridge to success within it.

This cohort is designed for:
