Introduction
Through the Department of Theology, the urban ministry program combines both theological and interdisciplinary courses to prepare the student for the vast opportunities for ministry in urban and cross-cultural settings. The focus of this major is on the student's preparation rather than on the development of specific ministry skills so that the student may be faithful in the call to serve and share the Christian gospel creatively. Thus, this program seeks to develop both a wholesome theological understanding and an understanding of the significant issues in overcoming social and cultural obstacles. Students in the major and minor are expected to model a lifestyle becoming a minister of Jesus Christ in covenant with the Spring Arbor University program. Admission to the major/minor commits the student to a yearly renewal of this covenant through recommendations and review of the student’s campus life, academic performance, and ministry activity.
