Immersion in Theology and Scripture for Gospel Transformation
The Master of Arts (Biblical and Theological Studies) builds a strong comprehension of theology, rooted in a thorough investigation of the Scriptures, with an eye toward gospel-centered transformation. Students will find themselves academically fit and spiritually prepared as informed theologians for work as a ministry leader, pastor, or educator, or for professional people whose ministry is in the market place.
The 56-credit M.A. (Biblical and Theological Studies) offers:
- The option to complete your degree on campus or online
- An emphasis on gospel-centrality for spiritual formation and theological understanding
- The opportunity to develop your own theological position directly from the Bible, rather than adopting an institutional doctrinal position

It was so exciting for me to have access to these amazing, Godly people who possess a wealth of wisdom and experience."
