Master of Arts in Christian Ministries

Welcome to the Christian Ministries Program!

Dr. Joel SozaA Word from our Program Director:
Thank you for your interest in the Master of Arts in Christian Ministries Program at Malone College!  I'm glad you took the time to view our website and I sincerely hope that you give Malone College a closer look. As an adult with a busy schedule, you may have thought earning a master's degree was out of the question. Our Christian Ministries program gives you the opportunity to complete your degree while you balance your personal life with your academic program and ministry.
 
The program is designed to fit the educational needs of adults who desire to become better prepared to serve the Lord. You don't need to be in full-time ministry or have a degree in a Bible-related discipline to enter our program. Our students have a variety of backgrounds and ministry experience. Some are senior pastors while others are lay leaders in their local church. Our students represent a broad range of denominational backgrounds. 
 
The world is in need of Christian leaders like you who have a solid biblical and theological understanding of ministry and are motivated by a genuine compassion to share the message of Christ. We pray for God's direction for you as you seek His will in determining what the next step is.
 
Thanks again for your interest in the Christian Ministries Program.  I pray for God's greatest blessings upon your life.
 
Sincerely,
Joel Soza, D.Th.
Graduate Director of Christian Ministries
