AS in Ministry Leadership

The Associate of Science in Ministry Leadership provides a creative way for students to obtain their college education and immediately participate in biblically-based and Spirit-empowered leadership in the church and the world. It maintains the challenging academic standards of NHCC’s outstanding educational offerings while providing the flexibility and individual support of an online learning environment. The curriculum challenges students to develop their critical thinking, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities and skills within the context of a biblical worldview and attitude of servanthood. Students will be guided to apply classroom theory and concepts and biblical knowledge to real-life situations and practical ministry contexts.

This degree is applicable in any career field. Still, it is specially designed for church and para-church ministries emphasizing leadership, preaching, teaching, and general ministry skills and students interested in graduate school and seminary training.

New Hope Christian College, an institution of higher education, exists to disciple emerging Christian leaders by developing their theology, ministry skills, and character in order to win souls, plant fruitful churches, and lead as exemplary ambassadors for Christ in the ministry and marketplace.

A strong desire of New Hope Christian College is to prepare students for ministry. This preparation is accomplished by focusing on three areas of Core Competencies: Personal Formation, Ministry Formation, and Skill Formation. Student development is tracked, culminating in a comprehensive list, like a report card, that graduates walk away with.
