This program is directed toward second career professionals. A person who holds a bachelor's degree in a field other than Bible or Theology may apply for admission to this program.

Adding a second baccalaureate degree in theology allows the student to build on previous studies and experiences. The objectives of this program are the same as those of the Diploma in Christian Leadership or the Diploma in Christian Ministry.

A double degree provides a unique, powerful preparation for a spiritual leader/minister in the 21st century. This program recognizes the value of double training.
