Well-educated people are people who have the habits of mind and heart to go on learning what they need to learn to live in a Christ-exalting way for the rest of their lives.
— John Piper
God is most glorified in you when you are most satisfied in him. Spend the next four years relishing this great truth as you mine the treasures of the Bible and consider the Great Books—works of history, literature, philosophy, and theology that have stood the test of time and resonated with human beings through the ages and around the world.
This is a program in which a conservative evangelical worldview is respected and a reformed, Calvinistic theological perspective is welcomed and encouraged. Here you will be challenged and pushed beyond your sense of your own abilities. In the process, you will cultivate habits of mind and heart as you are intentionally stress-tested to ensure that you graduate with a resilient faith that is ready to stand firm and contend for truth in the home, church, and world.
The Bachelor of Arts in Theological Studies is designed to help working adults complete a once-started but unfinished undergraduate education by transferring as much previously earned academic credit as possible and then focusing the remaining degree work on biblical theology and Christian discipleship. The tuition rate for 2023–2024 is $235/credit.
