MA in Practical Theology & Ministry

UK

2

What will I learn?

This MA degree will provide an experience of postgraduate level practical theology that is informed, relevant and inspirational.

This programme focuses on the ministry of individuals and communities within contemporary society. Rooted in academic practical theology, and in dialogue with the social sciences, it integrates reflective professional practice within Christian spirituality. It exemplifies research and practice-led teaching for ministry, which is a distinctive feature of LST’s educational mission.

LST is evangelical and interdenominational in ethos and this programme invites evangelical theology to be in conversation with the broader tradition of the Christian church. The programme allows students to engage with a range of perspectives within academic practical theology and seeks to enable deep theological reflection, whether in an explicitly church-based context or in charity or secular professional settings.

This programme is ideally suited for:

(1) Existing church leaders looking to develop a theologically-informed practice of ministry

(2) Graduate students in theology and religion wanting to spend a year or more preparing for Christian ministry.

(3) Graduate students looking to acquire a secure foundation in academic practical theology as preparation for research degree level study (MPhil/PhD).
