About the course

Worship planning and leadership are not simply a question of which music to select. New worship styles emerge with each generation. Ministerial leadership in such an environment requires well-grounded theological and musical understanding. Ministers of music and worship are ministers first and musicians second. Interpreting the current environment and leading with biblical and theological integrity is as important for the minister of music as it is for the pastor. The Master of Music in Church Music has the following objectives. To prepare students for music ministry in a local church. To prepare students to teach church music or to administer a church music program. To provide opportunities to use research procedures through oral presentations papers, and culminating projects. To provide continued opportunity for performance through private study and participation in appropriate ensembles. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
