Meaningful Ministry Starts Here

Pursue a variety of ministry-based professions. Youth minister and pastor, of course. But also, men’s/women’s minister, college minister, church planter, and more.

Disciples making disciples is the very foundation of ministry. Wherever God calls you, prepare for a life of fruitful discipleship with a BA degree in youth ministry, from NGU.
