Program Overview:
We believe that students are not just called to make a difference in the future, but that they can make a difference NOW! For this reason, the Christian Ministry degree programs help students discover and identify their unique gifts and challenge them to put these gifts into practice. Concentrations, electives, internships, and practicums offer opportunities for students to pursue studies based on their interests and passions.​​​​
Example Career Paths:
-
Pastor
-
Chaplain
-
Missionary
-
Evangelist
-

​
Or, pursue the AA in Christian Ministry to develop a spiritual and educational foundation for programs elsewhere that prioritize education for business, teaching, marketing, media, non-profit leadership, etc.
It is my goal to see students thrive in their degrees and pursue excellence and integrity in everything they do.
