Masters and Doctoral Program Options
Master of Arts
The Master of Arts program, in partnership with Kairos University, is for students who desire to gain a deeper understanding of the Christian faith while developing expertise in a chosen area of specialization.
Some commonly chosen areas of focus include missional theology, biblical studies, leadership, intercultural studies, theology, spiritual formation, and more. By starting with the classic theological disciplines, students work with their mentor teams to craft a program of study that helps them understand what God is doing in the world and then develop vocational expertise informed by that understanding.
Master of Divinity
The Master of Divinity is the foundational degree for Christian vocation. The curriculum supports students as they learn and grow in love for the missional character of God and develop into leaders who shepherd God’s people in His global Kingdom mission within each community’s distinct context.
During your MDiv studies, you will be ever mindful of this rich, Gospel-shaped vision as you study the church, conscious that you do so as one small part of a global community that God’s Spirit has cultivated.
Doctor of Ministry
Are you engaged in ministry and looking for ways to equip yourself with the skills needed to continue reaching your community? Missio offers advanced studies, through our partnership with Kairos University, that train men and women to become practical, advanced missional leaders in their churches and ministries. Regardless of whether you are in ministry professionally or as a lay leader, the DMin program will help you obtain a robust knowledge of theology and culture along with the tools to gain the wisdom to become an effective leader.
Whether you are looking to develop a theology of cities based on Scripture, reinvigorate an established church or organization, or learn to interpret Scripture in a way that leads to effective communication, the Doctor of Ministry program will help you grow in your ministry competence.
