| It has never been more clear that our world is filled with hurting people. We all know someone who desperately needs spiritual care or biblically-rooted Christian counseling. Every day, people battle depression, anxiety, anger, fear, substance abuse, physical abuse, and the list goes on.
Do you have a heart for helping people? Are you called to meet people where they are and serve others during their darkest moments? If so, seminary is for you.
Dallas Theological Seminary is for anyone who desires to grow in faith, in knowing God's Word, and in preparation to minister to others wherever called.
That's why we have developed two spiritual care ministry programs that focus on meeting the pressing needs in our world: | Master of Arts in Biblical Counseling (MABC) |
Master of Arts in Chaplaincy & Ministry Care (MACP) |
|
| These two programs include coursework that covers psychological, spiritual, emotional, and physical conditions along with the same Bible and theology courses taken by pastors and other ministry leaders.
These programs integrate Scripture and psychology so you can address the entire person: body, mind, and soul.
With an MABC or MACP degree from DTS, you will be equipped to meet people's needs in your church and throughout the world. | TAKE THE FIRST STEP IN PURSUING TRAINING THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF PEOPLE EVERYWHERE. | |
