DescriptionLiberty University’s 100% online Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling is designed to train ministry professionals and church leaders to become counselors in Christian ministries and agency-based, non-licensure settings. Students in the online Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling will study psychology and the Christian understanding of human nature and God’s creation that informs biblical counseling. Additionally, this pastoral counseling degree provides a balanced examination of spiritual and mental health which equips ministry professionals already in the field or students who want to move into a Christian counseling role.

With the online Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling’s discipleship and church ministry specialization, you will expand on the Christian counseling and pastoral care training at the core of the program to create healthy, effective church and parachurch group ministries. If you want to bring people together to support each other as they grow and heal, the discipleship and church ministry track can equip you to use your biblical counseling training to guide these groups and raise up new leaders.
