MA Theology and Ministry at Durham University

At the core of our MA lies the desire to integrate theology and ministry in a way that enriches both. This integration is the hallmark of all of our modules, and is exemplified in our programme’s core module, Theological and Practical Reflection on Mission & Ministry. Here students explore Practical Theology, an approach to theology that seeks to take practice and experience seriously, both as a context for the development of new insight and faithful response in light of Scripture and tradition, and as a source of new questions to bring to Scripture and tradition.
