DEGREE PROGRAMS

At The King’s Commission we believe in simplicity. Our degrees are fundamental in one sense, but they are highly customizable to nearly any study or life pursuit. Typically, students apply and then are contacted by an advisor to talk through their options and come up with a ministry prospective. We see your time with us as being exciting and passionate for the kingdom. Every aspect of your degree can be tailored towards the specific place that God is calling you yet also goes the extra steps to prepare you for what you might not have expected. Each student receives a personal advisor and has regular opportunities to dynamically pursue different avenues of learning such as personal online study, cohort groups, peer and pair pursuits, conferences, emergent missions, and so much more.
