    BA Intercultural Ministry Studies

    About

    After 60+ years of training missionaries, we have perfected the learning process that has become our BA in Intercultural Ministry Studies and Bible & Theology. This program will teach you how to minister effectively in any culture and any country by deepening your walk with God, growing your intercultural social skills, and developing a godly character.

    Bible & Theology:  The first two years of the program focus on biblical and theological study to deepen your understanding of God's Word, provide a foundation for godly character, and provide the substance for spiritual growth.

    Intercultural Ministry Studies:  The following 16 months are then spent participating in a Global Internship, living in another country with a
    team of classmates serving as missionary interns under our partner mission agency, Bethany Gateways, while continuing their studies with the university online. Global Internship is an outstanding catalyst to explore culture, participate in a variety of real life ministries, and for the student to find out how they personally fit into God’s plan for the world. At the end of Global Internship teams return to the Minnesota campus for a final semester designed to help students process and integrate all they have experienced.
