Nau Mai, Haere Mai! Welcome to Carey!
Here, you will study the Scriptures and theology, you will reflect on the practices of Christian ministry and you will learn about culture and the world in which we live and serve.
At Carey we have a distinctive and innovative approach to theological education.
The goal is not information, but integration – and heart transformation – to participate in God’s specific mission which He is calling you to.

Taught by Dr Mick Duncan
Bachelor of Applied Theology Student
Over the past eighteen months, I’ve found Carey to be a truly unique place. It is a community where you are welcomed as you are and are embraced no matter where you are at in your faith journey.
It provides the opportunity to really dig deep into the bible and Christianity in a way that can often be difficult in churches today. While being taught and supported by enthusiastic and caring lecturers, you get to walk alongside other students who are equally asking and wrestling with the ‘big’ questions as they seek out what God has in store for them.
With its strong focus on living life as Christ’s followers, theology applied is inherent to the learning and knowledge one can gain at Carey.
