West Virginia School of Preaching (WVSOP) Victory Lectures โ Organization Profile
The West Virginia School of Preaching (WVSOP) is a preacher-training work conducted under the oversight of the elders of the Hillview Terrace church of Christ. Based in Moundsville, West Virginia, the school describes its mission as training men to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ through a rigorous course of Bible study and ministry preparation.
WVSOPโs annual lectureship is commonly known as the Victory Lectures. The Victory Lectures are organized as a theme-driven series of Bible lessons taught by speakers who are invited to address assigned topics. While the lectures take place in a defined setting, the schoolโs approach is intentionally broader: WVSOP seeks to provide teaching that can continue to serve congregations, preachers, and Bible students long after a single week of sessions.
One distinctive feature of the Victory Lectures is how WVSOP preserves and distributes the content. The school notes that it produces a book of the lectures each year for wider reading use. These lectureship books function as evergreen study resources, gathering coordinated lessons around a unified theme in a format that can be used for personal study, group classes, or sermon preparation.
In addition to printed material, WVSOP also makes lectureship teaching accessible through recorded media. The school maintains a lectureships page that includes individual sessions with audio and video options, and its YouTube presence hosts playlists of Victory Lectures content. This combination makes it possible for churches and individualsโwhether nearby or far awayโto learn from the lectures in an on-demand format and to revisit lessons as part of an ongoing study plan.
The Victory Lectures are also connected to WVSOPโs broader educational mission. WVSOP describes a two-year course of study designed to strengthen studentsโ comprehensive understanding of Scripture, alongside practical assignments that provide experience in preaching and teaching. In that context, the lectureship serves not only as an instructional resource for the wider church, but also as a public expression of the schoolโs commitment to serious Bible teaching.
For those who want to stay connected to WVSOPโs work beyond the lectures, the school publishes a quarterly newsletter, Publishing Peace, as a way to share updates and resources. WVSOP notes that information about lectureship books currently in print is included through Publishing Peace, making it a helpful gateway for locating printed teaching materials connected to past Victory Lectures.
People can engage with the WVSOP Victory Lectures in several evergreen ways: watch or listen to archived sessions online, build a congregational class series from a lectureship theme, request or purchase lectureship books through the school, subscribe to Publishing Peace, or support the work financially so WVSOP can continue training and resourcing gospel preachers.
