The Master of Ministry program is designed to accomplish at least three things for those presently engaged in church-related vocations. First, it provides the opportunity for continuing education in order to promote excellence in ministry. Second, it enables the pastor to evaluate his ministries and to design programs that increase the growth and effectiveness of his church.
