School of Theology

School of Theology

 
Why are you drawn to the study of theology, scripture and ministry?
 
 
"The Gospel is simple, but it is also rich." 
Perhaps you simply desire to know more about what you believe.  You are someone who has always asked questions, who has always longed to understand more about the Christian faith.  You wonder about the history of the Church, how to interpret difficult Bible passages and what different Christian denominations believe.  Some programs in the School of Theology are designed to increase your understanding of scriptural, theological and ecclesiastical matters while providing a good liberal arts foundation that will serve you no matter what your chosen profession.  Most people who take minors in the School of Theology and some majors fit this category.
 
"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few."
Perhaps you have a heart for people and a special desire to see them come to know Christ more deeply.  You may even have special groups--children, youth, athletes--whom you feel called to serve.  Programs in the School of Theology can prepare you to become an assistant/youth pastor in a local congregation or lay a foundation for the seminary training so essential to a life of ministry.  Most students who major in one of the programs in the School of Theology fit this category.
 
"He gave the Church gifts."
Perhaps you have already completed a bachelor's degree, maybe it was a long time ago.  Now, however, because of a personal sense of calling or a need in your local church, you desire more advanced training that will make you more effective or open up new opportunities for ministry.  Perhaps you are a minister who has never attended seminary.  Malone's Master of Arts in Christian Minsitries might be for you.
 
Whatever your reasons for considering the School of Theology at Malone College, we encourage you to consider your calling as you look at these pages.  They contain detailed information that will give you a clearer picture of what it might look like to be a part of the School of Theology.
