| Descripción | The purpose of the Master of Arts in Intercultural and Urban Studies is threefold. First of all, it is designed to prepare pastors, evangelists, church planters, church workers, mission administrators, traditional and tentmaking missionaries and missionary candidates to be more effective communicators of the gospel in both multi-cultural and cross-cultural contexts, particularly in Asian and 10/40 window countries and urban centers. The students will develop a spirituality that integrates biblical/theological perspectives into a framework for doing missions ministry. They will become theologically informed and grow personally, professionally and spiritually. Using a series of nine Bible and Theology courses the M.A. core curriculum will ground the students in the Scriptures. Second, the program is designed (primarily through the Plan A, thesis track) to give qualified missions students extended time to analyze a current or future mission strategy, or a particular mission problem, that will result in enhanced current or future missions strategy. Third, it is designed (through Plan B, non-thesis track) to give Master of Arts in Intercultural and Urban Studies students options for further biblical studies and missions coursework. The Master of Arts in Intercultural and Urban Studies, gives students the opportunity to earn a degree while at the same time getting them to the field of service within an expedient time frame. This program builds upon the Graduate Diploma in Intercultural and Urban Studies. In addition to classroom studies, Master of Arts in Intercultural and Urban Studies are required to complete one summer of internship program and participate in care groups for two semesters. Can either be taken as a Part-time or Full-time student. |
