The Master of Arts in Theological Studies is a unique MA programme that aims to foster a holistic approach to doing theology which rejuvenates the study and practice of Christian theology for Church and World.

We accomplish this aim by means of the integration of the commonly recognised sources of theological knowledge: the Bible (Scripture), the historical construction of Christian belief (Tradition), considered, critical thought (Reason), the role of experience (Experience) and the witness of the living community of faith (the Church) as it proclaims the Gospel and makes disciples. In addition, this core concept of doing theology is brought, in various ways, into the theological sub-disciplines (Biblical studies, Systematic Theology, Theological Ethics, and Theology of Worship) represented by the optional modules. We view these sub-disciplines not as silos unrelated to each other, but rather as areas or emphases of theology that are mutually interpretive.
