The M.A. in Practical Theology is 2/3 (60 credits) of the Master of Divinity degree (90 credits) and is well-suited for those aspiring to various leadership positions which do not require the Master of Divinity, the standard professional degree, within churches, parachurch ministries, and nonprofit organizations. Such positions may include staff minister, missionary, Christian education director, youth minister, pastoral counselor, evangelist, and small group (cell) ministry director. This program is also recommended for senior ministry staff seeking a sabbatical or refresher experience, bi-vocational ministers (e.g., a church planter who employs professional skills in the marketplace for financial support), and those serving in roles with tasks that may differ from those expected of traditional church leadership positions. |

The Master of Divinity (M.Div) is the standard professional degree for ministry and is 90 hours. A student can use all 45 hours from the M.A.R. towards the M.Div upon completion of the M.A.R., so we usually recommend that students who want the M.Div. complete the M.A.R. first. Both M.A.R. and M.Div. allow for concentrations (15 hours) in areas such as church growth, pastoral counseling, or worship studies.
Many students in this program are in their 30’s or 40’s, and are presently in a non-ministry profession, but sense God’s call to ministry and are therefore persuing a second career. Others are presently in ministry but never received seminary training. Others are in ministry and started their training at their denominated school, but took a church before completing the M.Div., and therefore transfer their work from a previous seminary and use our school to complete their degree. |

The Master of Divinity (Concentration: Practical Theology) (also available through Distance Education) is the traditional 90-hour seminary degree which prepares men and women for professional church leadership roles. The program is designed to equip students in the areas of biblical interpretation, theology, pastoral care, pulpit ministry, and administration, while giving special attention to New Testament ministry emphases such as making disciples, equipping believers for the work of ministry, and selecting and training reliable leaders who can finish well and pass on Christian leadership skills and principles to others. Distinctives of the program include student interaction with issues related to personal integrity, spiritual formation, principles of church revitalization, and the development of strategies to establish Spirit-empowered churches and ministries around the world. A number of practical theology tracks are available.
The Master of Divinity is the established degree for students preparing for full-time Christian service as a church pastor, staff minister for a parachurch ministry, or a chaplain. The program provides the broad theological and ministry training required by most ordaining bodies and is the standard prerequisite for the Doctor of Ministry (D.Min.), Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.), and other terminal degrees. Students planning to pursue ordination or terminal degrees should consult the relevant organizations to determine their specific requirements. |
