M.A. in Family Ministry

Family Ministry is a growing trend and a powerful tool in contemporary ministry. The need to strengthen, model instruction, and encourage Christian families has never been greater. Servant leaders with a heart for families will proactively explore best practices for encouraging Christian family formation through every phase of life. The program also approaches the family from a therapeutic perspective regarding the specific needs of certain life-stages and how to appropriately respond to family crises. Our emphasis on research equips graduates not only to impact Christian families but also to effectively speak truth into our culture regarding God’s design for the family.
