Theological Studies

The theological studies program is designed to help students see themselves as called to ministry, whether in official church capacity, serving Christ via their vocation, or serving the kingdom in other ways. Theological Studies equips them to serve in their local churches, careers and communities. Customized degree plans can be tailored to their specific gifts and interests, including training in spiritual formation, biblical interpretation, ethics, and vocation and mission. In the context of an intentional community, students learn more about themselves and learn to discern God’s call. 


Program goals

  1. The number of students involved has increased more than 400% in the last two years. The goal is to have at least 10% of the student body add theological studies as a second major.
  2. The program aims to address the widespread minister shortage by preparing students for ministry in local churches, careers and communities. 

 

How can you help? 

Your generous gifts will help us continue to support these students by helping them develop a ministry identity and by fostering community. Our priorities include:

  1. Establishing a physical space for cultivating community
  2. Increasing the operating budget for events, speakers, mentoring sessions, merchandise, etc.
  3. Provide salaries for additional dedicated staff to advise and mentor a rapidly growing number of students
