Philosophy of Religion
Philosophy of Religion degrees fall under the Division of Christian Thought.
Master's Degree Programs
There are two programs at Denver Seminary that offer focused study in philosphy of religion. Both the Master of Arts with a major in Philosphy of Religion and the Master of Divinty with a concentration in Philosphy of Religion prepare students for ministry to a pluralistic world and to people who struggle with honest questions about the truth of the tenets of the Christian faith. By investigating and comparing the sources and tests of truth, courses develop a coherent Christian worldview by which to live and minister authentically, while examining contradictory assumptions in alternative philosophies, religions and cults.
