What is the difference between the Master of Divinity and Master of Arts Degrees?

The Master of Divinity Degree (M.Div.) is the cornerstone of a seminary program. This 90-credit hour course of study will equip men in every discipline of theological study, as well as in the original languages. In receiving a M.Div., pastors, missionaries and Christian workers will be thoroughly prepared to understand and interpret Scripture, minister within the church, provide counseling, and faithfully preach the Gospel. Based on the elective courses chosen, a student can have an emphasis in Greek, Counseling, or Preaching.

The Master of Arts Degree (M.A.) is a program designed to help men gain further skills in handling the Word of God and ministering in the place God has put them. This 36-credit hour course of study is not as extensive as the M.Div., but still offers the student life-long tools for more effectively ministering for the Lord. Once a student completes the Master of Arts Degree, he is welcome to continue in his studies working toward a Master of Divinity Degree.
