The Doctor of Ministry

Great Commission Student Ministry

Apply Now

The student ministry specialization seeks to equip local church and ministry leaders to create, implement, lead, and evaluate a student ministry philosophy shaped by a foundational focus on the Great Commission. Students will develop a ministry model that affirms believing parents as primary-disciple makers for their own children and that corresponds with the overarching mission and vision of the local church. Courses will also emphasize adolescent development and biblical identity, discipleship and spiritual maturity, and cultural engagement for the purpose of cultivating spiritual wisdom and understanding.
