B.A./B.S. in Bible and Theology

The Bible and Theology major (30 or 33 credits) is a signature requirement for a bachelor’s degree at Johnson University. Students complete this major alongside a core of arts and sciences classes and a second major selected from more than 30 options.

The Bible & Theology Major constitutes the signature core of Johnson University’s educational experience. The goal is to “focus on God’s self-revelation in history as recorded in the Christian Scriptures, which gives meaning and purpose to life” (from Johnson University’s “Educational Approach”). The Bible & Theology Major contributes to the goals of Johnson University’s baccalaureate curriculum. Students are also encouraged to consider supplementing their Bible & Theology Major by developing competency in the biblical languages of Hebrew and/or Greek.

The Bible & Theology Major provides students with the knowledge and skills needed to read, interpret, and apply the biblical text. It promotes spiritual growth and missional engagement and equips them to fulfill the Great Commission in local and global contexts.
