The 34-credit-hour program focuses on the foundational areas of theology: biblical, moral, doctrinal, and spiritual and sacramental. Courses and workshops in theology, scripture, ministry, spirituality, counseling, and human and behavioral social systems are taught with special concern for pastoral applications.
