The Bachelor of Science or Bachelors of Arts in Christian Ministries is designed to permit maximum flexibility in program design. This degree program accommodates the student who desires to attend seminary, who desires to work on staff in a church, who desires to become involved in a "tent-making" ministry, or who desires to exercise Christian influence in the community in a professional leadership role.
