Opinions on Master's International University of Divinity

I run a teaching ministry in the areas of Christian worldview and apologetics, and I can't shake the desire to get a PhD (I currently have a MA/Philosophy of Religion from TEDS). I'm going to be launching our ministry's online academy in the next year, Lord willing. 
So my question for you is... what did you decide?

This is an old post and a lot has happened. But I will provide an update on several things.

1. I ended up entering the Th.D. Program at Forge Theological Seminary and finished my degree.
2. About a year later I was in the process of getting married and I received an email from FTS stating they were restructuring and expanding and were extending an invitation to me to apply to teach.
3. I applied, was hired, and now I teach four classes online at FTS.
4. The seminary is no longer tuition free. It is subscription based. I think $60/month while you are in classes.
5. I also volunteer as a mentor at an online Bible Institute, where I manage 10+ courses, help students with their studies, answer questions, etc.
6. I have recently returned to FTS as a student to complete an MDiv to fill in the gaps I have in my previous degrees concerning practical ministry. Most of my studies have been research, theological, philosophically based. I have very little practical ministry training and my wife and I are now heavily engaged in local ministry at our church as well as hopefully launching a writing/online ministry in the future.

For about three years I was perfectly fine with my Th.D. and thought I was finally finished with formal education. But I am once again back in school and even looking at possible options for a Ph.D. Just depends on what God would want me to do.
