Program Overview

The Bachelor of Arts in Evangelism and Discipleship equips believers to share the Gospel with clarity, confidence, and compassion. The program grounds students in the biblical theology of evangelism — from the Great Commission to the missionary journeys of Acts — while building practical skill in personal witness, public proclamation, and relational disciple-making. Students study how people come to faith, how new believers grow into maturity, and how local churches build cultures of invitation and multiplication. The curriculum addresses contemporary challenges to gospel witness, including secularism, religious pluralism, and digital culture, and prepares graduates to serve as evangelists, outreach directors, and discipleship leaders in churches and parachurch ministries.
