The Worship and the Arts major prepares students to serve the church and the world through art, creativity, and worship. Students are introduced to the rich resources that Scripture and Christian theology offer for thinking about worship and beauty. They also learn the practical skills necessary to lead and serve effectively through the creative arts. Students who major in Worship and the Arts often go on to serve in worship and arts ministries in local churches, creative roles in para-church or non-profit organizations, or they pursue careers as working artists.
