Develop a Profound Understanding of Biblical Theology and Doctrine 

When you earn your master’s degree in Theological Studies, you’ll be prepared to teach the Scriptures at the undergraduate level, conduct research, and write for scholarly publications. You can choose between a New Testament or Old Testament emphasis. The focus of each program includes biblical exegesis and interpretation of the original languages.

You’ll also have the opportunity to apply what you’re learning in practical ministry.

This program is also offered online
