Global Pentecostal House of Study

A master’s track designed specifically for students in Pentecostal and Charismatic traditions.

As the Church moves into the 21st Century and beyond, Global Pentecostalism is increasingly on the rise. A well-rounded approach to graduate Pentecostal studies in Scripture, Theology, Church History, and various other disciplines is essential for the spiritual formation of emerging leaders. Students who enroll in this graduate level studies program will discover the richness of the Pentecostal heritage and its place in the larger Christian Tradition. They will be trained and equipped to come alongside those they serve as they lead them into the future. They will also be given the necessary resources and tools to wisely handle the Sacred Text in the presence and on behalf of the community they serve by the empowering presence of the Spirit.

Master’s Tracks

Beginning in Fall 2022, Global Pentecostal tracks are available through United's Master of Divinity and Master of Arts in Christian Ministries degrees, so you can pursue your studies through your program of choice.
