Overview

Additionally, you will understand and be ready to communicate the basic historical and theological heritage of the Christian faith.

Another exciting facet to this program is the opportunity to have acquaintance with the people, creeds, liturgies, and systems of faith that make up the basic elements of their heritage. Your ability to understand and evaluate the issues and dynamics in the contemporary communities of faith and in contemporary theology will be enhanced, thereby strengthening your ability to defend your faith.

Historical theology provides the conceptual framework for the Master of Arts Theological - Historical Studies program from Oral Roberts University. Proficiency in either theological German or theological French is required for graduation. Another language, however, may be substituted with the approval of the area committee when such a language is especially relevant and clearly demonstrated for the successful completion of a course of study.
