Program details
Overview
General Ministries is a 90-credit-hour Bachelor of Religious Education (BRE) completed over four years, preparing students for ministry roles in local churches, para-church organizations, and mission settings. The curriculum centres on biblical interpretation, doctrinal articulation, and hermeneutics, alongside training in applying Christian teaching to contemporary issues and ministry contexts. Students integrate faith and academic study through Scripture-focused coursework combined with practical ministry formation. The degree is structured for students seeking broad-based ministry preparation rather than a specialized theological or denominational track. Classes are delivered mostly in person, with a portion of courses available online, allowing some flexibility for students balancing ministry commitments alongside their studies. Graduates are equipped for pastoral, teaching, and lay-leadership positions within church and mission-focused organizations. The programme also lays a foundation for students considering further theological study at the graduate level.
