90 Credit Hours
The M.Div. program is a standard professional degree for Christian ministry, which builds upon the M.T.S. program. This program is a 90 credit hour program designed to give students a thorough understanding of the Bible and Pentecostal theology and strengthen their ability to interpret and communicate the truths of God’s Word to others. This program seeks to prepare students to be effective, Christ-like leaders in any avenue of ministry, which may include being pastors, teachers, evangelists, and missionaries.
In addition to the M.T.S. courses, which total 40 credit hours, students will be required to complete the following:
