The Bachelor of Arts Degree Program equips the student for ministry or further study in a graduate program. Through biblical, ministry, general education studies, and student ministry training, students are prepared for church, parachurch, or mission-related professions. Because students need to be equipped with knowledge of God’s Word and practical ministry experience to be effective leaders, each B.A. student is a Biblical Studies and Christian Ministries Major, with the option of choosing an additional emphasis in Educational Ministries, Missions, or Pastoral Studies.
