MA-CHULDR - Church Leadership (MA) (35-50 units)

The Master of Arts in Church Leadership prepares, equips, and forms Christian students for ministry leadership in Christian congregations as pastors and other ministry leaders. Through academic course work, spiritual and ministry formation, and hands on ministry experience, students will be prepared to serve in ministry in our ever-changing world. Students may choose an emphasis in Christian Ministry or in Teaching and Biblical Interpretation. Students will be required to attend at least one in-person summer intensive class; students in the Teaching and Biblical Interpretation emphasis who do not attend two may increase their time to graduation. Students must be working in a relevant ministry position in a church or church-related context to be accepted to the program.
