MA in Historical Theology Degree Program

2 YEARS, 72 CREDITS
MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORICAL THEOLOGY

Program Description

A crucial aspect of interpreting the future of theology is knowledge of its past. Westminster Seminary California’s MAHT program equips graduates with an understanding of the historical development of the various Christian theological traditions and the critical skills necessary for evaluating them. Students learn to give an honest and coherent account of the past while gaining a historically-minded approach to contemporary cultural, intellectual, and theological issues facing the Church today.

Through this program, WSC serves the church by training students to give an honest and coherent account of the past as well as to relate significant issues of church history and the history of Christian thought to intellectual and cultural movements.

Our MAHT program is a 2 year and 72 credit program. Students will focus their studies in the areas of historical theology, biblical languages, and systematic theology. For more information, see the degree program outline below.

MAHT Program Alumni Testimonial

“There is a great deal of confusion over central issues in the church today, even in Reformed circles. The education I received at WSC gave me solid preparation to face these challenges and to stand firm on the theology of the Reformed Confessions.”
