Youth, Church & Culture - Northwest Nazarene University

Youth, Church & Culture from Northwest Nazarene University is a Campus Master Religious Studies degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. Let?s face it: the world has changed. So have young people -- and their families. In times past, adolescence lasted only a few years. Now it stretches well into the mid- to late-twenties, yet many youth ministers still lead as they did in previous generations. Perhaps one of the reasons that adolescents are leaving the church is because we have attempted to minister to a kind of young person who no longer exists. Northwest Nazarene University is pleased to announce the addition of a new graduate track in Youth, Church & Culture to our menu of fully online Master of Divinity programs. Students earn a fully online Master of Divinity degree in as little as 50 months by engaging culturally, theologically, and practically with youth, their families, and social systems. Prospective students include those who wish to serve the Church or parachurch through ministry to young people in diverse forms. NNU\\\\\\\'s Master of Divinity in Youth, Church & Culture is a twenty-first century model for ministering to young persons and their families. Through our robust study of developmental, cultural, and spiritual formation within a practical theological framework, adult learners are preparing to engage the youth of today and tomorrow. The Master of Divinity is the ?gold standard? for ministerial preparation and NNU\\\\\\\'s specialization in Youth, Church & Culture will facilitate ministry in the local church or parachurch while establishing a strong and deep foundation in theological training for life-long ministry and leadership. As an expression of NNU\\\\\\\'s commitment to the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition, our Master of Divinity in Youth, Church & Culture develops student to serve youth and their families with a knowledge of and commitment to the family system.
