Christian Education

The

Christian education major

prepares students to minister

effectively and to encourage spiritual growth through meaningful

relationships, compelling biblical teaching, effective program

development, and influential leadership in a constantly changing

culture. The required selection of a ministry concentration area

and options in selection of a minor can be combined to equip for

unique specialized areas of ministry to diverse age groups and

ministry contexts (church, camp, college campus, parachurch

organizations, cross-cultural contexts, etc.). This degree also

provides a solid foundation for seminary or other related graduate

programs.

Course requirements involve 74 semester hours including:
