Overview

Dive into your academic passions and a rich, thorough theological training, simultaneously. Our Vocational Ministry program is designed to serve as a supplemental degree to whatever discipline you pursue. That way, you’ll be well-prepared to use your career as a ministry tool.

The way we see it, all Christ-followers are ministers in the kingdom of God. We also recognize that you have unique God-given gifts and passion that you desire to explore as a scholar. Focus on how to use those gifts as a platform for expressing your partnership with God and his work in the world. Be intentional in your efforts to become a spiritual leader within your specific academic area of interest.

The vocational calling that you follow will be profoundly enriched by theological grounding to pursue a life of love and reconciliation.
