General Description

With an increasing number of clergy holding bachelor degrees and the difficulty in sending them overseas for further education, WAAST announced the launching of a graduate program to begin in May 1994. Thus the Assemblies of God Graduate School of Theology (AGGST) was founded.

Recognizing the centrality of Missio Dei (God’s mission) in the Scriptures and the purpose of God, AGGST held the conviction that the first graduate major should be in the area of missiology. Eighteen students were admitted into the new graduate program in May 1994. They represented six nations of Africa and the United States of America. The program attracted students from several nations because it combined academic excellence with Pentecostal commitment. The program is now recognized as one that meets high standards of scholarship and yet provides the practical emphasis on ministerial skills and knowledge to enhance the ministerial performance of its students.

The Master of Arts in Missiology degree is designed for men and women whose ministerial skills and demonstrated competence qualify them for continued education at the master of arts level. In offering this degree, AGGST manifests its conviction that the Christian ministry should be enhanced as it faces the contemporary world. Ministers should be encouraged to improve their skills and enlarge their vision in order to be the most effective ministers of Jesus Christ.
