DOCTOR of Ministry

Flexibility to stay connected in ministry and seminary.

Professors engaged in current ministry bring life experience to the classroom.

Professionally interact with higly experienced fellow ministry practicioners.

Phoenix Seminary’s Doctor of Ministry degree

is a learning environment in which your

hard-earned ministry experience is leveraged

to attain mentor-level wisdom and expertise.

Alongside other experienced practitioners, you

will seek answers to foundational questions

like: How have I thought about and practiced

ministry before? Is my reflection and practice

sufficient in my contemporary context? How

can I discern a new way forward that is

biblically and theologically precise, and also

methodologically responsible?

Our Doctor of Ministry program allows you

to remain in the location where you are

ministering. One-week intensive courses

form the core of the course curriculum,

making travel requirements minimal.

Through a consortial arrangement with

Western Seminary (Portland, OR), you will be

able to take classes from Phoenix Seminary or

Western Seminary toward your DMin in

order take advantage of specialized courses.
