Built on a strong Bible curriculum, this program prepares students to minister effectively in cross-cultural contexts within the United States and around the world. Development of the inter-cultural competencies necessary to build relationships with people from different cultural and ethnic backgrounds is emphasized. Students are prepared to adjust to life and ministry in a different culture, to work in teams, to minister creatively, to proclaim Christ in culturally appropriate ways, to nurture godly disciples, to develop national leaders, and to establish local churches. The student is also prepared to teach English as a second language by completing ten TESOL credits. Upon successful completion of the program, the student earns a B.S. in Bible degree.
