Education today to lead the church tomorrow.
OKWU’s online Bachelor of Science in Ministry and Leadership is designed to equip students for a long, effective career in church ministry, parachurch ministry, or in the administration of a ministry organization. The program allows students to continue working in their home church while providing them with the leadership and biblical education necessary to advance.
A lost world is crying out for ministers equipped with the life-changing Word of God. Churches, nonprofits, and service organizations are leading the way, providing the help, support, and charity people need. God is ordaining these missions, and OKWU is here to help.
In addition, OKWU’s Ministry and Leadership degree can be adapted to include an ordination track.
