Preaching is a core responsibility of ministry leaders. Our preaching program will prepare you to deliver relevant, doctrinally sound teaching. A focus on biblical exegesis and its application to our lives today is a core component of our program.
Professors with real-world ministry leadership experience will provide instruction in homiletics, preaching and biblical genres, and great commission preaching. Our flexible program allows you to select the elective ministry courses that best fit your interest and calling.
