Missions

Is this major right for me?

This degree is to prepare and develop missionaries who will heed Christ's call to "go into all the world" with His message of hope and salvation. It is designed for students with a passion for God's Word and strong people skills, who intend to pursue ministry in another cultural or geographic setting, or in places where the church needs leaders.

Degree objectives

With this major, you will:

• Gain a solid theological foundation in the Bible, both Old and New Testaments.
• Study the principles of the New Testament and how those are applied to daily life and ministry.
• Learn the history of the church universal and the Restoration Movement, seeking to understand the impact of that heritage on church today.
• Receive both theoretical instruction and practical training in ministry, especially church planting and cross-cultural missions.
• Gain missions experience through Missions Seminar, Missions Focus and internships with organizations such as WorldWide Witness and Let's Start Talking.
