Theology that develops out of a foundation of sound biblical interpretation

Master of Arts Biblical Studies

The Master of Arts in Biblical Studies program is an academic program designed to equip Christian men and women for ministry and lifelong service to Christ. The program focuses on developing skills in Biblical interpretation and exegesis in the original languages. Students will develop the ability to think theologically and apply the biblical text in their own contexts.

Program Outcomes:

Students who complete the Master of Arts in Biblical Studies degree will be able to:

Develop biblical foundations: understand and articulate the key themes of the Old and New Testaments and their implications for a life of faith.

Develop skills in exegesis: thoughtfully interpret the biblical text in the original languages using methods and approaches that lead to sound interpretation and application of the text.

Become theologically adept: articulate a theology that grows out of a foundation in the biblical text, reflects an appreciation for the historical heritage of the Church as a whole, and affirms the historical orthodoxy of the Christian faith.

Expand awareness of the Haitian context and beyond: reflect critically on and respond biblically to key aspects of the Haitian culture in which they minister and gain awareness of God’s work establishing his kingdom, both in Haiti and around the world.
