Overview

Key Facts and Outcomes

The degree, which combines intensive on-campus sessions with live online learning, offers students the opportunity to reflect theologically on practices of lay professional ministry or other Christian service.

This Duke University program is designed primarily for those seeking to enhance lay vocations while remaining in full-time ministry or in other professional positions.

The thread that runs through the Christian Practice program is spiritual formation. Each new cohort of students is assigned a mentor that will direct their spiritual formation until graduation. You will deepen your own spiritual practices by cultivating habits and rhythms for sustaining a lifetime of Christian service. You will also have time, space, and mentoring to discern your future vocation.
