Whether you’re fresh out of school or haven’t studied in years, the Diploma of Christian Studies is an ideal starting point for studying the Bible, theology and mission.
Unfortunately, the Bible doesn’t say “Repent, be baptised, and study a Diploma of Christian Studies!” But for people wanting to go deeper in their faith, MST’s Diploma of Christian Studies is highly recommended for providing a solid biblical foundation with plenty of room for ministry training. This one-year course is a springboard for your own personal growth, being equipped for ministry, or for exploring whether you might like to continue studying an undergraduate degree.
