The MA in Ethics, Theology, and Culture with a concentration in Intercultural Studies equips students for the practice of cross-cultural mission, drawing upon theological, historical, and social scientific disciplines. The complexity of ministry in a world of globalization, resurgent traditional religions, growth of the church in the global south, migration, urbanization, and rapid change demands the highest quality of academic, spiritual, and practical preparation.
