And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. (John 12:32 KJV)
JESUS UNIVERSITY
Dr. Ronald S Hobson, Sr.’s immeasurable professional resume is such that he’s overwhelmingly passionate about education — both in the natural and spiritual realms.
That practically sums up why sometime in 2009 during which Dr. Hobson was approached about a golden opportunity to share of vision through a notable institution of higher learning, the longtime Pastor deemed it foregone conclusion to embrace such a compelling and rewarding concept.
A Boston-area minister who’s suitably known as Bishop Hobson, Dr. Hobson has become the catalyst for Encouraging Faith Theological University, a fully accredited Christian institution that offers a global view and a wide range of online courses.
“We at Encouraging Faith Theological University offers you an education that is challenging,’ said a spokesperson for the school at https://www.eftuonline.org/about.html. “For God’s Word is not just for the learning, but to transform our lives as well. So, we encourage you in your endeavor to learn of God and we welcome you as well to the place to learn.”

Generally, Encouraging Faith Theological University’s strategic mission is centered largely on teaching the Word of God in truth.
And, because there are many who do not have time to physically attend classes during the week, EFTU offers all of its degree programs solely online, all the while accommodating its students with the essentials mechanics needed to successfully earn their degree online.
According to a spokesperson for EFTU, courses are also available from any mobile device.
A ministerial calling that spans approximately three decades, Dr. Hobson is the Senior Pastor at The Reconstruction Church in Brockton, Massachusetts. A native of North Bellport, New York, the accomplished minister, entrepreneur, and author brings a wealth of professional experience to EFTU as the school’s Vice-Chancellor.
A little more than a decade ago, Dr. Hobson was approached by Kenneth L. Davis, EFTU’s Chancellor and Founder, about joining the school’s staff.
To his credit, coupled with the divine calling on his life, Dr. Hobson’s presence has been nothing short of impressive, considering he serves in a variety of capacities for what has become a credible institution, most notably for the Body of the Christ.
“The university is convenient and affordable for all to enjoy its rich teaching and structural foundation of faith,” Dr. Hobson told Making Headline News this week.
Moreover, EFTU Online has become a global game-changer for its student body, in large part because of its solid online curriculum.
“The University prides itself on being a Christian-based, Christ-centered establishment, hoping to build great leaders for the years to come,” Dr. Hobson said.
Also, Dr. Hobson emphasized, EFTU Online is steadfastly committed to advancing the kingdom of God, first and foremost.
Generally, this is done mostly by what he describes as equipping, empowering, and instructing each student to be evangelistic in their fervent approach and, most importantly, establishing a Christ-focused relationship.
“Since the age of nine, my passion has and is to spread the gospel of Christ to the world,” Dr. Hobson said of his commitment to EFTU. “First, by becoming an example of His grace and mercy. Secondly, becoming transparent to the realities of life. Lastly, being the example of change by living a life of honesty and integrity.”
Given his notable ministerial tenure, it’s safe to assume that Dr. Hobson undoubtedly was birthed into ministry.
Having always looked up to and admired his pastor, the late Bishop Ralph L. Jefferson — “I still admire him today,” he often says — it was due in large part to his spiritual father’s unorthodox style of preaching, coupled with what Dr. Hobson describes as his “tenacity in preaching The Word” that greatly fueled his desire to want to follow in his footsteps.
Much to his delight, he’s done just that, all the while winning souls to Christ in the process — even as one of EFTU’s most recognizable and respected administrators.

Consequently, he was consecrated in December 2003 to the Office of Bishopric through the laying on of hands of His Eminence W. O. Kinnings in nearby Philadelphia before being reaffirmed and dually consecrated to the Office of Bishopric and Presiding Prelate of Preachers United Fellowship in August 2006 by the Episcopal Board of Bishops of Alpha & Omega Ministries, Bishop Lee A. Davis (of California).
Having studied at Empire State College in Buffalo, New York, Dr. Hobson enrolled at the University of Phoenix, during which his concentration was Business Administration. Having matriculated from Encouraging Faith Theological University with honors, Dr. Hobson is an accomplished author who wrote “Who’s Your Moses?”
