Theology Major
The departmental programs rest on theology that is a reasoned response to God’s self-disclosure through Jesus Christ. This theology strives to respectfully illuminate the mystery, grace, and hope of that story, which manifests itself through the Church. The theology major aids students in preparing for graduate work in related disciplines and for Christian service in the Church and the world.
Benefits and distinctives:
- Prepares students for continued education at a seminary or university

What about internship and graduate school opportunities?
Many students complete internships in local churches. Additional internship possibilities are available through faculty contacts. Theology majors often pursue graduate degrees at Fuller Theological Seminary or at APU within the Haggard Graduate School of Theology.
“In the Haggard Graduate School of Theology, we have amazing professors who guide their students through the ideas and concepts of who God is and why we believe what we do. They have showed me the nature of church doctrines, what the earlier theologians thought, and how to build on their ideas in modern times.”
