Program Description

The Master of Arts in Children's Ministry and Master of Arts in Global Leadership dual degree program equips students to become global servant leaders who help children and their parents in international, cross-cultural, and multiethnic settings. Christian educators who work with children must understand the needs of children, explore the principles of the best strategies in teaching children, and implement methods that impact not only the child but the family. Global Leadership consists of connecting with people in other cultures and societies around the globe and finding ways to exert a positive influence in their lives. Learning the intercultural skills and understanding multiethnic dynamics are crucial skills for leadership in today's increasingly multicultural and multiethnic environments.
