If the words “make disciples of all nations” express the cry of your heart, then
this program is for you. The WorldView Graduate Center’s Master of Arts in
Intercultural Leadership is designed to add to your knowledge, skills, character,
relationships and walk with the Lord so that you are all the more equipped to make disciples in cultures very different from your own.
The learning process that is outlined in our catalog has grown from the
WorldView Graduate Center’s rich heritage of intercultural ministry.
It includes insights from Christian leaders around the globe and has been
designed to be profitable for ministry from any land to any land.
Whether you are a missionary, a mission trainer, a mission leader, or a leader in
a local church that is involved in intercultural service, we believe that the MA in
Intercultural Leadership will serve you well. Whether your home is in the
Americas, Asia, Africa, or Europe, we believe that the WorldView Graduate Center can give you greater understanding of the people you have been sent to serve, principles of communication through which to make the Message known, and the centrality of our relationship with the Triune God in our missionary tasks.
We welcome you to an educational philosophy that is rooted in experience as well as theory. We use case studies to keep a practical edge to the theoretical
content of the program. We believe that cooperative learning best fits the realities of mission work, and so the MA in Intercultural Leadership is designed to add to your individual development even as you work with peers to better understand ministry realities. Finally, we have designed the MA in Intercultural Leadership to blend together the importance of face-to-face interaction with the ability to study while in your ministry. Through the dynamic and expanding world of internet–based educational platforms, we bring most of the MA into your local environment.
May God bless you as you serve Him “making disciples of all nations.” And if the WorldView Graduate Center can expand your ability to make those disciples, then we look forward to hearing from you soon.
In His Grace,
