Counseling Ministries

Master of Arts in Counseling Ministries

The Master of Arts in Counseling Ministries provides high quality training in counseling with the well-rounded biblical and theological foundations. This degree is designed to prepare students to be capable counselors who are able to integrate their Christian faith with competent pastoral care and counseling abilities. Students find themselves employed in numerous church, parachurch, and ministry positions where pastoral care and counseling skills are utilized. For some faith groups, this degree may suffice for ordination.

Collectively, this degree prepares you to offer wise, biblically-informed guidance and counsel in settings other than licensed, professional therapy. If God is moving you toward a non-licensed counseling ministry, then the MA in Counseling Ministries is right for you.
