The Christian ministry explores practical forms of service in church and para-church ministries. The minor allows you to develop knowledge and skills in another area of interest while preparing for ministry.
Program Director: Darren Duerksen, Ph.D.
The Christian ministry minor offers students pursuing degrees in other majors and who have interest in Christian ministry to pursue further ministry training and preparation as part of their academic training either for personal or professional reasons. The CM minor may be ideal for: 1) students pursuing careers in Christian non-profit organizations that require specific training found in another major, 2) students interested in areas of ministry that might benefit from preparation in other majors with support from ministry education (children's ministry, church business administration, etc.) or, 3) students pursuing careers in other fields who are interested in additional training to prepare them for a life of ministry. Students completing the minor may also be eligible for advanced standing at 成人直播 Biblical Seminary should they later decide to pursue a master's degree in ministry preparation. Admission and character requirements in the major apply likewise to the minor.
Degree completion students must complete two years of post-high school work experience in a professional setting with an interest in pursuing Christian ministry.
