Overview

Those ministries include congregational pastor, healthcare and military chaplaincy, campus ministry, spiritual direction, pastoral counseling, not-for-profit work, and other community based ministries.

Features

Unlike some master’s programs, the M.Div. combines a framework of academic disciplines- Bible studies, theology, history, homiletics, liturgics, counseling, and Christian spirituality- with practical ministry experience.

The Divinity program at University of Redlands fulfills the education requirements of most major denominations. Core M.Div. courses are taught in San Anselmo, but many elective and upper level courses are offered in Berkeley at other GTU schools.
