What does your ministry need most?

Answer that question, then choose your Master of Ministry courses. Through your study, you’ll dig deep into the Word of God, find the answers to problems you’re facing, and learn how to stop future problems before they start.

In the midst of your active ministry, it can be hard to systematically study the Bible and “make time” for the training that will help you grow yourself and others. The M.Min. at Pensacola Theological Seminary gives you the flexibility to strengthen your ministry while still keeping up with everyday responsibilities.

Since Doctrine and History of Preservation of the Text is the only specific required class, your M.Min. will be unique to you and practical for where you are. When you graduate, you’ll be better equipped to share the Word of God—even passages that right now might seem impossible to explain or apply.

Learning Outcomes

Graduates will be able to

demonstrate an advanced knowledge of the Word of God through expositional study,
offer a credible defense of sound doctrine,
integrate a greater understanding of Scripture into various ministry contexts,
evaluate current issues affecting ministry in light of biblical teaching, and
demonstrate through research and writing projects the ability to apply the Word of God practically in their area of ministry.
