Along my studies I have little by little understood that theology belongs to street and marketplaces and should belong to our every day lives so that real transformations by the Word of God occur. (Thailand, '05 Grad)

The ABTS program has been a perfect fit for our ministry in Korea. By taking only 1-2 courses per year, it enables us to keep fresh and growing while doing ministry. ('05 Grad)

The program brought a renewed exuberance and passion to me and the ministry where God has called me. (Philippines, '05 Grad)

Master of Arts

Description

The Master of Arts (MA) degree is a 63 credit hour program providing opportunity for in-depth investigations into the three basic content areas.  A substantial elective category allows students to explore areas appropriate to their ministry context.  Students who have not accomplished any postgraduate studies are encouraged to complete the In-Ministry MRE degree before progressing to the MA degree.
