The Bachelor of Ministry program consists of training in a diverse core curriculum that focuses upon developing the student’s general Bible knowledge and upon developing the student’s training in key areas of ministry. The major courses center upon developing the student’s skill in specialized areas of ministry service.

The Bachelor of Ministry program is an advance-at-your-own-pace program. Most students will complete the program in less than two years. Students are required to maintain a 2.00 GPA to advance into the ATS graduate programs.
