Most programs teach ministry. This one forms ministers. At Queens College of Theology, the Master of Divinity program isn't about earning a degree, its about developing depth, discernment, and direction. You'll leave with a faith that's grounded, a theology that's lived and a calling that's clear. 

Here, ministry training becomes ministry experience. And preparation becomes purpose. 

  • Experience leading in real-world ministry settings
  • Master the ability to preach, teach and disciple others with clarity and confidence
  • Potential careers include: pastor, missionary, chaplain, teacher or church leader
