Biblical Preaching Emphasis

When you earn a Master of Divinity in Biblical Preaching, you’ll gain in-depth biblical and

practical preparation for ministering in churches or parachurch organizations in the United States or abroad. The program focuses primarily on biblical analysis, systematic theology, church history, preaching, and biblical languages, training theologically minded and astute pastoral leaders who can communicate God’s Word effectively and with conviction.

Program update for fall 2024: We have reduced this MDiv program from 87 credit hours to 72 without sacrificing any depth or quality. This change allows you to complete your world-class MTS education faster while being equipped to more effectively preach God’s Word!
