Vision is proud to offer its
first entirely online degree program --- The Master of
Theological Studies (M.T.S.) The curriculum, produced by
some of the world's top biblical scholars and theologians in
cooperation with The Institute of Theological Studies,
serves persons who wish to explore disciplines within
Christian Theology.
Objectives of the Program
The M.T.S. is especially suited for persons interested in
some aspect of teaching and research or engagement in socio-religious
issues. The M.T.S. program may be a bridge to further
studies toward a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) or Doctor of
Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree. The program is designed to
equip men and women for further study, research, or
teaching.
Goals
The M.T.S. degree program has as its
goals that students undertake a rigorous course of
academic study that will provide an opportunity to
explore foundational issues in Christian theology.
Program of Study
The program focuses on historical, systematic, and biblical
theology. Professional ministry issues are not a focus
of this program. Nevertheless, the program is designed
to provide a theological foundation for ministerial service.
The program consists of 12 courses, 3 semester credit hours
each, for a total of 36 credit hours. There is no
required Thesis or research project.
The M.T.S. is closer to the
Master of Arts (M.A.) than to the Master of Divinity. The
program focuses more intensely on issues of academic
theology and less on issues of ministry. The Vision
M.T.S. program is specifically focused on academic study in
Conservative Charismatic Theology with an emphasis on
historical Christian orthodoxy.
