Master of Divinity
The 75-hour Master of Divinity (M.Div.) at Wesley Seminary is perhaps the most innovative degree of its kind. Offered fully online, fully onsite, or as a hybrid, it is built around local church ministry and designed for practicing ministers.
The M.Div. program is designed and taught by faculty teams who weave Bible, theology, and church history into the curriculum. This integration of foundation and practice is a highlight of Wesley Seminary’s unique design. At its core are praxis courses focused on mission, leadership, worship, proclamation, congregational spiritual formation, and congregational relationships. These courses join theory with practice and lead students through a process of personal and spiritual change.
