Ground your faith through a solid introduction to biblical studies and Christian theology.

Should you decide to change to a longer program, this certificate will transfer directly into almost all of Prairie's four-year degree programs.
Program Overview

• Study Scripture and apply it to your life in practical ways.

• Clearly articulate important biblical and theological themes.
• Commit to meaningful participation in a local church.
• Employ your unique gifts in ministry and service to others.

Expanded Opportunities
