Earning your Associate of Arts in Religion (A.A. in Religion) Online is the first step toward establishing the solid biblical foundation necessary for an effective career in ministry.
Whether you are a pastor looking to increase your knowledge and earn additional qualifications for your position, or an individual with a desire to serve in a specific area of ministry, NST Online’s A.A. in Religion program provides you with a solid foundation from which to understand the fundamentals of the Bible, Christianity, Christian theology, and the Christian church, with the goal of training you for effective ministry.
You will gain an understanding of the origin and contents of the Bible, and will be equipped to use the Bible in dealing with contemporary issues in ministry, developing excellent oral and written communication skills that are key to effectively communicating in both personal and professional ministry environments.
