The majors offered are designed to prepare you for service in the church, the academy, society, and throughout the world.
As a Christian Studies student, you have many opportunities and avenues in academia, ministry, and educational fields. Customize your Asbury experience with many leadership, worship and ministry opportunities on campus, in Wilmore and beyond.
"I believe that one of the best ways to integrate faith and learning is to live out what you teach, and our professors do that well. This program has strengthened my discernment to go to seminary and move from there to a full-time pastoral role and possibly teach in the future.”
Faith Grows Here
Fulfilling the Great Commission requires active intellectual life, strong leadership, and the ability to engage the world’s cultures in a time of ever-increasing diversity and change. With this calling in mind, our Department seeks to deepen students’ understanding of the Christian faith and shape their worldview in ways that are rooted in Scripture, theology, and philosophy."
In the School of Christian Studies, students have the opportunity to learn and experience ministry and service in hands-on ways.
