About Bible and Theology

Do you have a love for learning? Are you passionate about ministry or want your theology to be shaped so you are equipped as a disciple? Our courses in Bible and theology integrate God’s word, God’s world, and God’s work. They bring together the resources of the Christian faith, the realities of your particular context, and the rhythms of Christian discipleship and ministry today.

We offer a range of programmes ranging from a six-month certificate through to a three-year Bachelors degree or a two-year Masters degree. You can also try one or two courses for interest.

Learn, grow, be transformed for the sake of Jesus and his ministry in this world.

“I’m particularly interested in matters of economic and ethnic justice in the Old Testament, as well as the way that these texts intend to form us morally and shape our character as disciples of the Lord Jesus.”

“Carey has really helped me to think theologically and understand the cosmic purposes of God and our participation in God’s grand story of renewing and redeeming creation. It’s so captivating that this is inextricably tied up with issues of race, culture, poverty and humanity. Most importantly, I know Jesus more intimately.”
