This major is uniquely designed to serve as a secondary major for students wishing to double major outside of their primary discipline, and is only available to students with a primary major outside of the Bible & Theology Department. Students in the Bible & Theology double major are equipped with knowledge, skill, and character pertinent to detailed knowledge of Old and New Testament literature and theology (both historical and systematic). Students will be equipped with advanced skills in personal and practical application of biblical and theological principles, as well as fundamental skills in research, writing, and presentation of material appropriate to students’ professional goals.

“I decided to double-major in Bible & Theology because I knew that I wanted to study the Bible, know more about who God is, and what His word says. However, I did not fully realize the effect that my studies would have on my own walk with the Lord. With each class, I find that my faith is more equipped to tackle hard questions. I don't just learn information about God, but I find God for my own through His word. The Bible & Theology professors teach students how to think not by forcing their views on their content, but instead teaching students how to logically reason with God and embrace the tensions of the Bible on their own.”

The double major in Bible & Theology builds upon courses already taken to satisfy the 30-hour Bible & Theology core for all programs, and enables students to increase their focus on biblical and theological studies. Students are able to individualize their study by choosing the Bible and Theology classes they would like to take in order to meet the double major credit hour requirements.
