Equipping Followers of
Jesus to Be More Like Him
COTMU is a one-year (30-week) program. Together, we examine Scripture, study the history of doctrine in the church, and learn how to appropriately discern and critique today’s cultural moments.
Applications for 2022 are closed.
The Story of Scripture captures the imagination unlike any other in history. Yeah, it’s that good. We want to help you see the story in all its epicness.
What do you believe and why do you believe? We want to help you align your beliefs about God, the church, and yourself with Scripture.
You’ve got a part to play in the epic story of our faith. It’s tied to all the stories of followers of Jesus that came before you. We want to help you see it.
No prerequisites for serious learning.
Do I need to read a lot to fit in? Nope.
Is it only for pastors, teachers, etc.? Nope.
Do I need college credit to attend? Nope.
Am I going to feel stupid? Nope.
We promise: It’ll be great!
Meet Your Instructor, Blake Zimmerman
Blake is a Spiritual Formation Pastor at Church on the Move. He holds a Masters in Applied Biblical Leadership from Western Seminary.
“For the last ten years, I have been on a serious journey—a God mandate to learn, be curious, and explore, but not to explore anything and everything. Instead, to let the Story of Scripture ignite my imagination. I’ve seen that when we let ourselves go there, when we develop a biblical imagination, we become more and more like Jesus. Not because we have more information in our heads, but because we have a story in our hearts.”

Hear From Students
You walk away recognizing how much you don’t know and wanting to get closer to Jesus because of it.
– Brad Ogans
The Bible was sort of discombobulated. It was a lot of pieces, and pretty quickly in COTMU you start seeing it’s 66 books that all mean the same thing.
– Jeremy Jewell
I wouldn’t say there are any prerequisites for being a student at COTMU, but I would say be prepared to be pushed out of your comfort zone.
