Doctor's degree Ministry - Anderson University - Anderson

Doctor's degree Ministry from Anderson University - Anderson is a Campus Ph.D Religious Studies degree that prepares you for a Liberal Arts career. All the research, course work, interaction, and reflection of the Doctor of Ministry degree are designed to enhance the professional competence of already seasoned ministers. The focus of the degree is on the ministerial settings where they presently serve. The degree is to be understood as the development of a more carefully defined ministerial role in the local setting rather than merely as an enhanced academic status. Although academic criteria are crucial to the program, the chief aim is to assist each participant in both the critical analysis and further enrichment of his or her ministry. The program provides the context in which professional ministers can hone their analytical and reflective skills. They do so in conjunction both with other professional ministers and with academics whose focus is on the practice of ministry . The purpose of this professional and academic collaboration is to make significant contributions to the field of professional ministry in general. The Doctor of Ministry degree is the only doctoral level program that requires ministry in a local setting. It necessitates partnership with a local community of faith. Partnership is a key word in the Anderson Doctor of Ministry philosophy: partnership with the local ministerial setting, partnership with the local professional ministry, partnership with the academic community, and partnership with other professionals who are participants in doctoral studies. It is intended that all graduates of the Doctor of Ministry program will have enhanced professional competence in the practice of ministry, with a focus on scholarship, spirituality, and service.
