The Bible and Theology major is intended for the
person who wants a thorough preparation in
biblical and theological knowledge. It is the
recommended degree program for those who plan to
continue their education at the graduate level.
The Bible and Theology degree with pre-graduate
studies emphasis provides a foundation in Bible
content, Christian doctrine, biblical languages
(especially New Testament Greek), and Church
history. One advantage of this degree is the
flexibility of course offerings. Students choose
from an array of courses in Bible, theology, and
history. Elements from the discipline of
philosophy are also introduced to students for
the purpose of making them conversant in the
major issues of thought throughout the ages
The Bible and Theology degree with Pastoral
Studies emphasis also provides a foundation of
Bible content, Christian doctrine, biblical
languages (especially New Testament Greek), and
Church history. This emphasis provides some
training in the skills of pastoral ministry as
well. This program is ideal for those who plan
to work in the educational ministry of the
Church.
