Bachelor Degree Programs

Harvest University is pleased to announce that the Bachelor of Arts in Theology and Bachelor of Arts in Ministry programs will begin enrollment in Spring 2026.

Bachelor of Arts in Theology Program (BATH)  

The Bachelor of Arts in Theology equips students with a strong foundation in Scripture, Christian doctrine, and ministry leadership within the evangelical tradition. This program integrates theological study with hands-on ministry experience, preparing students for pastoral, missionary, and discipleship roles. A key component of the program is the internship in church or fellowship ministry, where students gain practical experience in preaching, teaching, pastoral care, and church administration. Through active participation in disciple-making, students engage in mentoring, evangelism, and spiritual formation, applying biblical principles in real-world ministry settings. Alongside academic coursework in biblical studies, theology, and leadership, students develop spiritual disciplines, ethical integrity, and critical thinking skills for lifelong Christian service. This holistic approach ensures graduates are well-prepared to lead, teach, and discipline others in churches, mission fields, and Christian communities.
