Overview

Throughout the Divinity - Healthcare Chaplaincy MDiv program from the Liberty University as a chaplain, you will need the same foundational training as pastors and other evangelical leaders. Our professional chaplaincy degree will provide you with courses covering these foundational topics. You’ll study subjects like biblical leadership, world religions, expository preaching, theology, and more. Upon successful completion of this program, you will be able to:

Develop a global Great Commission perspective that demonstrates the proclamation and application of the Gospel and disciple-making process.
Examine major critical issues in the Old and New Testaments from a conservative evangelical perspective while exhibiting knowledge of the literature appropriate to the discipline of biblical studies.
Examine theological positions on key doctrinal questions and issues in Christian thought.

For your healthcare concentration, you will take courses on resilient leadership and healthcare chaplaincy. You can also personalize your degree to fit your specific career goals. You may choose to complete CPE units as residential intensives or with a CPE program in your community – or you could choose to complete an internship. Either of these options will provide you with hands-on experience in chaplaincy prior to graduation.
