MA Pastoral Studies

... United States
... Lipscomb University

Course Overview

In today’s world, effective ministry involves more than just knowledge. The needs of those you serve are often complex and change over time. As a servant-minded, passionate individual eager to meet those needs, you can study at an accelerated pace under devoted scholar-practitioners across a variety of disciplines. They will give you the tools you need to act as a faithful participant for the cause of Christ.

Enter pastoral leadership with more training and experience than a standard ministry program. Through this program, you will engage in biblical and theological study grounded in Scripture. Additionally, you will gain practical skills for pastoring, such as conflict management, partnering with civic organizations and nonprofits, and functioning within established systems, especially in urban contexts. There are also two global learning opportunities based in Israel and Italy, which provide students excellent opportunities to explore the ancient world of Paul and the origins of the Christian story.
