MDiv with a concentration in Intercultural Ministry
The Master of Divinity with an Intercultural Ministry concentration equips both prospective and experienced overseas missionaries for effective cross-cultural ministry. It gives nationals from other countries the tools to help them minister more effectively in their own contexts. And this degree enables those who intend to remain in North America to become more culturally sensitive and to minister with competence among people of diverse backgrounds and ethnicity.
At Denver Seminary, the intercultural ministry degrees fall under the umbrella of the Division of Christian Ministry. Watch a video from the Division of Christian Ministry.
