MESTRADO EM MINISTÉRIO ESTRATÉGICO

Christian leaders minister in a complex and rapidly changing world. Effective leadership in this context requires a biblically-based philosophy of ministry, skillful analysis of cultural dynamics, the capacity to think and plan strategically, and the ability to lead and equip people to extend the kingdom of God in his world. Johnson University’s Master of Strategic Ministry program involves a partnership between the academy and the church that equips students for this kind of effective, strategic Christian leadership.

The program includes online coursework in strategic ministry, a study trip to Israel, and a 9-month ministry apprenticeship at a partner church in Peoria, Arizona, Orlando, Florida, or Tennessee. Dr. Snell serves as dean of the School of Congregational Ministry and as the Arizona residency director. Dr. Rory Christensen serves as the Florida residency director.

Johnson University was founded in 1893 by Ashley and Emma Johnson, who served as the school’s first two presidents. From the beginning, the University has been marked by strong leadership, a clear mission, and a focus on affordability.

At Johnson University our mission is to educate students for Christian ministries and other strategic vocations framed by the Great Commission in order to extend the kingdom of God among all nations.
