Show More Research in the past decade has confirmed the importance of a more holistic approach in ministry to youth, children, and their families. In response, Northwest Nazarene University's fully online Master of Arts degree in Youth, Children & Family Ministry prepares those heading into a vocational ministry role as a generational or family ministry pastor, youth or children's pastor, or laypersons desiring advanced training in the context of parachurch ministry, Christian schools or camping. The Master of Arts: Youth, Children & Family Ministry program is a twenty-first century learning model with a robust study of developmental, cultural, and spiritual formation within a practical theological framework. Designed specifically with adult learners in mind, students can earn their MAYCFM without any residential requirements while preparing to engage our world, both today and tomorrow. After completing an online orientation, MAYCFM students focus their studies around the same eight Youth, Children & Family Ministry courses in which MDIVYCFM students take as their specialization.
Entry RequirementsThe student will have a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited college or university or equivalent, which should include at least 8 semester/12 quarter credits in Biblical Studies, Christian Theology and/or Western Philosophy, and evidence an overall GPA of 2.5, or 3.0 in the last 30 semester/45 quarter credits.

A minimum of two years of experience is recommended. If English is not your primary language, proficiency must be determined by successful completion of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with a minimum total score of 85, with writing and speaking no less than a score of 22, and no score under 20.

Show More Over the past decade, children's ministry and youth ministry have experienced a revolution. Churches are recognizing the importance of a more holistic ministry approach. Rather than thinking of ministry strictly in terms of artificial age categories, more and more churches are staffing their ministries with women and men who understand the broader dynamics of youth, children, and their families. In response, Northwest Nazarene University has created a fully online Master of Divinity degree in Youth, Children & Family Ministry. The Master of Divinity has long been considered the "gold standard" for ministerial preparation. NNU's specialization in Youth, Children & Family Ministry can prepare you for ministry in the local church or parachurch while establishing a strong and deep foundation in theological training for life-long ministry and leadership. Many of our students are serving in full-time or part-time ministry assignments while others are serving presently in volunteer capacities. Whether you are heading into a vocational ministry role as a generational or family ministry pastor, youth or children's pastor, or you are a layperson desiring advanced training in the context of parachurch ministry, Christian schools or camping, NNU's fully online Master of Divinity: Youth, Children & Family Ministry track will equip you for the ministry to which God is calling you. YCFM students can choose either a Master of Arts or Master of Divinity track. MDIVYCFM students complete an online orientation, 42 credits in their pastoral ministry core, and 32 hours of specialization in Youth, Children & Family Ministry. After completing an online orientation, MAYCFM students focus their studies strictly around the same eight Youth, Children & Family Ministry courses in which MDIVYCFM students take as their specialization, as shown in the comparison chart to the right. MDIVYCFM students can complete their degree one course at a time in as little as 50 months, with most summers free. MAYCFM students are able to complete their programs in as little as 21 months, with no course work in June or July. NNU's MDIVYCFM program has also been validated as meeting the educational requirements for ordination in the Church of the Nazarene*. Entry RequirementsThe student will have a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited college or university or equivalent, which should include at least 8 semester/12 quarter credits in Biblical Studies, Christian Theology and/or Western Philosophy, and evidence an overall GPA of 2.5, or 3.0 in the last 30 semester/45 quarter credits.

Show More The Educational Leadership program is designed for those seeking formal educational leadership roles such as building-level principals, assistant principals, or instructional team leaders. It emphasizes the administrator as an instructional leader and a servant leader. Skills appropriate to goal setting and maximizing human potential, the unique aspects of an organizational structure, and the management tasks of an administrator are identified. Successful completion of the MEd in Educational Leadership qualifies the graduate for recommendation to the State of Idaho for a K-12 principal's certificate.
