Theology

Overview

Theology is an invitation to engage in a centuries-long conversation about God’s nature and purposes in our world. 

Gordon College’s theology minor will challenge you to think critically and theologically about all of life—from careers to culture, relationships to reconciliation, the past to the present. You’ll learn to actively participate in and apply biblical, historical, systematic and practical theology to your life and your community to develop a deeper understanding of God. 

Why study theology at Gordon? 

Our faculty layer scholarship with practical skills and provide space to learn from others so you can deeply understand the diversity of Christianity and connect it with service to the world.  Learn from the Bible and past Christians as well as the ones pulling up a chair next to you.  

How can studying Theology help you be a difference-maker for Christ? 

Study theology in real-time and explore the implications of faith for your everyday life: technology, mental health and creation care. Stretch your mind and heart to uncover a new richness to your faith and your ability to lead impactful ministries or pursue graduate degrees. Gain confidence in your passion and potential to become a difference-maker for Christ.
