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
Seeing and savoring the glory of God in the Word and the world is the true object of every waking moment and the source of every impulse to learn. A regenerated heart yearns to know more, and Bethlehem College & Seminary has shaped degree programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels to feed the appetites of lifelong learners and equip them for fruitful ministry in the church and the world.
The Bachelor of Theology 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 remaining degree work on biblical theology and Christian discipleship.

The Master of Arts in Exegesis and Theology is a 42-credit, two year, one night a week graduate program for working adults, men and women, who are interested in gaining biblical Greek language skills and a better understanding of God-centered Reformed theology. This program is not designed to build the foundations for pastoral ministry (i.e. preaching and counseling classes), but rather to encourage effective workplace ministry, flourishing family life, and more theologically minded pastors, ministry staffs, and missionaries.
