Youth Ministry

The Youth Ministry major prepares students for ministry as a youth pastor and also for various local church ministries that focus on ministering to the spiritual needs of young people.

Young men will find that the requirements in Bible and practical church studies are similar to the majors in Pastoral Studies and Missions.
