Overview

Students may focus on a specific area of ministry by adding a minor in Bible, children's ministry, family ministry, missions, theology, worship leadership, or youth ministry. This major fulfills the educational requirements for ordination as an elder in the Church of the Nazarene.

Objective

This Christian Ministry program from Northwest Nazarene University prepares students to go directly into ministry after graduation. It is strongly recommended that students also complete a departmental minor. The combination of the Christian Ministry major with a designated departmental minor provides the educational requirements for ordination as an elder in the Church of the Nazarene. The requirements of other denominations may be met through the selection of elective courses.
