Bachelor of Arts in Biblical and Theological Studies

Biblical Studies is at the heart of who we are and what we do. The Bachelor of Arts in Biblical and Theological Studies at Great Northern University trains students to read Scripture historically, theologically, and practically. Through foundational training for traditional forms of vocational ministry, you will be equipped with the tools to interpret and apply biblical text within church ministries, pastoral education, a missionary career, in Christian graduate programs, or Christian continuing education.

This Biblical Studies program is designed for anyone who desires to think and act as a Christian in every aspect of life — even in business or entrepreneurial careers. Regardless of what future you might pursue, formal education in Biblical Studies can be foundational in making your faith your own.

The vision was of a university that incorporates biblical studies with Christian liberal arts to prepare students to serve missionally in any context, whether in professional ministry, business-as-mission, or in merely bringing the influence of the gospel to the workplace. This vision is rooted in the conviction that Christian young people who are well-founded in scripture and expertly trained for meaningful careers have tremendous potential to engage and transform the world for Christ.
