2 Our Students may study advanced Greek and Hebrew, Aramaic, and Theological German. In the truest sense of the word theological, we exist to equip, nurture, encourage, and support men and women for their very best service in the Kingdom of God. -Dr. Robert Canoy At the School of Divinity, men and women are encouraged to pursue their ministry calling wherever God is leading them. 2 GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF DIVINITY Stretching the Mind, Stirring the Heart, Serving the Church
3 SCHOOL OF DIVINITY THEOLOGICAL EDUCATION STRETCHING THE MIND, STIRRING THE HEART, SERVING THE CHURCH Excellent scholars teach the classical Christian disciplines with full awareness that academics alone will not meet the needs, concerns, and challenges of the varieties of Christian ministries to which God calls us. We are certain that unless we attend to our spiritual, personal, and emotional development, the ministries to which we are called will fall far short of our Lord s expectations. At Gardner-Webb University, great faith manifests itself in who you are and how you act. Greatness, after all, is really about changing lives and helping others (at Gardner-Webb, you ll do plenty of both). Here you ll test your intellectual mettle and you ll also seek your purpose. You ll strive to find that place where your faith reaches out to meet the needs of the world. In other words, your calling.

6 Stretching the Mind, Stirring the Heart, Serving the Church Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15 Procedure for Admission Master of Divinity Submit a completed paper or online application and return to the Divinity Admissions Office. Submit official transcripts of all baccalaureate and graduate-level work. Provide three references, which should include an academic reference, a ministerial reference, and a personal reference. The submission of a statewide criminal background check for all residing states within the last 5 years, with a residence verification form. 6 GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF DIVINITY
7 SCHOOL OF DIVINITY MASTER OF DIVINITY We offer the Master of Divinity (M.Div.) degree, a three-year course of study accredited by the Association of Theological Schools, as the basic professional ministerial degree. The M.Div. degree is available in six concentrations, each sharing a common 60-hour core, and multiple dual-degree combinations. Emphasizing theological reflection and ministerial formation, this course of study is designed to provide men and women with a comprehensive, in-depth knowledge of the body of divinity and to help ministers develop the skills necessary for effective ministry. Beyond the core, students may choose a 30- hour concentration in Biblical Studies, Christian Education and Formation, Intercultural Studies, Missiology, Pastoral Care and Counseling, or Pastoral Studies. Program Design Unique to the School of Divinity s Master of Divinity program is a two-day-a-week block schedule format. Most classes are offered in 3-hour blocks of time all on one day instead of being spread out through two or three days per week. This scheduling format makes it possible for students to take a full semester course load while still maintaining their secular or churchrelated employment. Core Curriculum The M.Div. core curriculum is designed to be integrative, inductive and interactive. Moving beyond the artificial dichotomy between theory and practice, it requires students to reflect theologically on the practice of ministry while they are actually engaged in ministry. Components of the Core Curriculum Biblical Studies 18 credit hours Spiritual Formation 12 credit hours Historical Theological Studies 12 credit hours Ministry Studies 18 credit hours A guiding principle behind the core curriculum is that effective ministry is not simply a function of what the minister knows, or even what the minister does, but must also include what the minister is, both personally and vocationally. Requirements for Full Admission A baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited college or university. A minimum grade point average (GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale) in baccalaureate work. A stated and demonstrated commitment to ministry. Submit a completed Church Approval Form from the church where the applicant is a member. Submit a 1-2 page Christian pilgrimage statement outlining conversion, call to ministry, and ministry objectives. Submit a completed Immunization History. SDSA Join the School of Divinity Student Association and promote excellence in ministry education, innovation, and pace setting leadership in the Christian community. Faith Service Leadership 7
8 SCHOOL OF DIVINITY M.DIV. CONCENTRATIONS Biblical Studies Offers specialized training for persons who wish to emphasize in their ministry the study and the teaching of Scripture. With additional hours of Old Testament and New Testament electives, and pedagogy, research and writing for publication seminars, this concentration prepares students for graduate research in biblical studies. Christian Education and Formation Through this study, one acquires an overview of age-group work, tools in designing a church s curriculum, and principles in organizing a church for mission and ministry. Missiology Offers specialized training to persons who will serve in a variety of mission and ministry settings that demand cross-cultural training. The program includes biblical, historical, theological and practical issues that must be addressed by missionaries and other Christian workers in the 21st Century. Intercultural Studies Offers specialized training to persons who will serve in cultures other than their own. The program aims to develop students knowledge, skills, and overall competence necessary for intercultural engagements in North America and overseas using the paradigm of change. The course would equip students to become effective agents of change in the face of the 21st Century religious pluralism, cultural relativism, urbanization, global diaspora, and globalization. Pastoral Care and Counseling Offers specialized training for persons who desire to emphasize in their ministry the pastoral role of the minister as counselor and care-giver, whether in a parish setting or in an institutional setting. The program gives attention both to theory and to clinical experience under supervision. Pastoral Studies Designed primarily, though not exclusively, with a view toward pastoral ministries (i.e. pastor, associate pastor, etc.), Pastoral Studies extends the basic M.Div. core curriculum by adding courses in advanced historical/theological electives, and courses focusing on the more practical aspects of ministry in local church settings. M.Div. DUAL DEGREE PROGRAMS M.Div. M.A. English or English Education Designed to enhance divinity students literary skills by permitting them to earn a second degree, the M.A., instead of the usual M.Div. concentration. M.Div. M.A. Ed.S. in Mental Health Counseling Designed to meet the needs of individuals seeking to integrate theology, faith, and spirituality with counseling theory and clinical experience in the mental health field. M.Div. MBA Designed to enhance the administrative skills and expertise of ministers by permitting them to earn a second degree, the MBA, instead of the usual M.Div. concentration. The program has three potential student populations in view: the minister who desires greater expertise in business administration, the church administrator in a large church; or the bi-vocational minister. M.Div. M.A. in Religion Provides divinity students with a broadened and deepened context in the biblical languages, the academic study of religion, and opportunities in either thesis writing or teaching internship. Students earn a second degree, the M.A. in Religion, instead of the usual M.Div. concentration. 8 GARDNER-WEBB UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF DIVINITY
