Online Ministry and Theology Degrees

As a current or aspiring minister, you can further your education and career with one of our online ministry and theology programs. The affordable programs combine rigorous and helpful theological discussion with practical application of the topics in the workplace. Campbellsville University offers four levels of programs: a certificate in Christian ministry, an associate degree in Christian studies, bachelor’s degrees in both pastoral ministries and leadership and missions and a master’s in theology. The programs additionally incorporate opportunities for real-world experience.

With any of our online ministry degree programs, you will learn how to demonstrate effective servant leadership skills within a career rooted in faith. Through the one-year Christian ministry certificate, you will discover the fundamentals of ministry and theology and be able to validate your role as a minister or leader. The associate degree provides a strong biblical foundation in pastoral ministry and leadership, while allowing you to configure the degree with a variety of electives to better suit your needs.

You can also complete a bachelor’s degree in pastoral ministries or leadership and missions. With either fully online program, you will transform into a leader and uncover a deep understanding of ministry study and work. Additionally, the master’s in theology allows you to research one of three emphasis areas and advance your ministry career or enter another field, such as religious research, teaching or counseling.

The fully accredited online ministry degrees offer credits that are transferable should you decide to later pursue a higher degree, and courses take eight weeks to complete. Campbellsville University is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC).

“I enrolled in the Master of Theology program because it was fully-online and affordable. I loved that the classes switched every eight weeks. I graduated from the program in nine months. I was so proud of myself!” – Demetria Gilkey, Master of Divinity
