Department of Missions & Evangelism

James Cecil, Ed.D. Chair

The Department of Missions and Evangelism includes a major and a minor in the subject area. 

As a Missions and Evangelism Major, you will focus on General Education courses during your first two years, while concurrently beginning studies with the major. Freshman/Sophomore courses also introduce you to the Bible and the Christian Worldview. The Junior/Senior years provide for a more intensive study of your major. A faculty advisor will work closely with you to ensure an efficient and productive degree completion plan. You can prepare by completing all your secondary school requirements and developing an attitude of learning, and seeking God's will for your life as you prepare for ministry in the local church or as a missionary or evangelist in an international setting.
