Master of Arts in Youth Ministry

The MA in Youth Ministry is to train and equip youth leaders in Ethiopia and beyond to be mentors of other youth and to empower them with skills to become Disciples of Christ and Transformers in their communities. The MA degree program in Youth Ministry is an integral part of a comprehensive Christian Education focusing on reaching the young people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This contributes towards meeting the spiritual as well as socio-economic needs of the youth in a holistic approach weaving together the Biblical and theological insights in tackling the contemporary spiritual, social and economic problems rampant among the youth. 

This program will not only equip local church youth workers, but it will also equip and train youth leaders with the appropriate credentials to teach the course material at the bachelor and diploma levels across Ethiopia and beyond.  The need for quality academic, theological training for youth workers is possibly the greatest need of the local church today. 

To date there are no accredited bachelor or Masters’ level youth ministry degree programs in Ethiopia. With this MA degree in Youth Ministry, ETC can set the standard for a program of the multiplication of Youth ministry leadership training.

General objectives of the program

The general objectives of the program are as follows:

  • To produce graduates with comprehensive knowledge in Youth Ministry and to prepare them to reach the multi-cultural youth population with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
  • To  enable the students to have a deep understanding of the multi-faceted problems the youths are facing and equip them with the skill and experience to identify, analyze and tackle these problems within the context of biblical perspectives.
  • To prepare graduates to teach in higher learning institutions and to prepare them to peruse a higher doctoral degree in Youth Ministry.
