The University of Dubuque Theological
Seminary Master of Arts in Missional Christianity will equip women and men for competent leadership in missional ministry in congregations or other settings. This may take the form of ministers of outreach, urban ministry, health ministries, or work with para-church organizations.

We are fortunate to have faculty in place with special expertise in the area of mission, and many other professors who will teach well toward this emphasis and provide a strong foundation for the program.

Our coordinator for the MAMC Program is Dr. Amanda
Benckhuysen, Assistant Professor of Old Testament. Core mission faculty members are: Dr. Bonnie Sue Lewis, Associate Professor of Mission and Native American Christianity; Dr. Les Longden, Associate Professor of Evangelism and Discipleship; and 
Dr. Beth McCaw, Pastor to Students and Instructor in Ministry.

Educational Goals
The student will:
1) Articulate and reflect critically and constructively on the biblical and theological foundations of God's mission to the world.
2) Develop, implement, and assess strategies for missional living in a specific cultural context.
3) Adopt spiritual practices that nurture their personal lives as faithful disciples and witnesses.
4) Develop skills and capacities for faithful and competent Christian witness.
