The mission of the worship program is “Equipping Worshipers to Serve”. Core values of the B.A. in worship degree include: Musical Emphasis We value a core musical background for all worship students. We value contemporary music as the voice of our culture and will equip students to be musically and methodologically relevant in the “real world.” Theological Foundation We value a strong theological foundation, grounded in biblical truth for all worship students. The Bible minor and required classes will emphasize a biblical foundation for worship ministry. Interdisciplinary Nature We value interdisciplinary study in fields related to worship ministry. We value each student developing God-given talents and interests, resulting in an individualized degree tailored for each student. Elective hours can be used to complete minors or to double major. Students pursuing this major must complete the general education core.
