[July 25, 2013]  Beginning in August, Lincoln Christian University will be training servant leaders in the Indianapolis area on the campus of Outlook Christian Church, 6531 N. 600 W., McCordsville, Ind. This seminary degree is the first to be offered at LCU's Indianapolis extension site in the northeast suburb of McCordsville, just 25 minutes from downtown and with easy access to Interstates 469, 70 and 69.

The Indiana-based master's degree in ministry is a 48-credit-hour program designed to give Christian leaders a strong foundation, focused studies and practical field experience to help them build their unique ministries. Courses include 24 credit hours of foundational courses, 12-15 hours of focused ministry courses and 9-12 hours of field experience in the form of mentored ministry and a capstone field-based project.

The master's in ministry can be completed in less than three years. Foundation courses are on-site, but students have the option to take up to half of their focus courses online Field experiences are arranged to suit personal objectives and situation. This hybrid approach lets students tailor their education to fit the needs of their life and ministry -- and results in more productive in-class time and engaged learning.

Dr. Rob McCord, professor and program director, believes: "Whether you're sensing the call to leave your nets and enter vocational ministry, or you're ready to take your current ministry to the next level, you'll find this Master of Arts in Ministry degree will provide the useful training you need to do all God is calling you to do and be all God is calling you to be."

This Lincoln Christian Seminary program is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools, the Higher Learning Commission: A Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, and the Commission on Accreditation of the Association for Biblical Higher Education.

With the program, students can respond to God's call and live their mission in the church and the world. The training will enrich students' relationship with Christ and their understanding of God's Word, enable them to use the wisdom gained to lead effectively, and equip them to embody Christ in their ministry.
