Comments from Alumni

“The AGTS educational format creates a learning environment that meets my needs for continuing education. The instructors teach cutting-edge principles from a Pentecostal perspective and encourage application to my current ministry setting.”

Randy Bartelt, Pastor, Highlands Community Church, Lincoln, Neb.

“The master’s program broadened my abilities, world-view, and gave me a greater appreciation for the Word. Projects became immediately applicable to my ministry. Relationships with faculty and students were an added benefit. If you want a Pentecostal flavor to your education, then AGTS is the place to go!”

Lewis Shelton, Pastor, First Assembly of God, Albany, Ore.

Continuing Education MACM Program

The Continuing Education version of the M.A.C.M. can be completed by any student, regardless of the field of their undergraduate degree. Students with a religion major may be allowed to reduce the degree requirements from 60 credits to 48. At the end of their program, students are required to present an integrative project that ties together their whole educational experience and projects the meaning of their studies for their future ministry. The general requirements for graduation (see AGTS Catalog) apply as well.

This degree curriculum differs from that of the resident M.A.C.M. in that is does not included the new elements of the River, Bridge, Road and Vehicle and will not do so for several more years. The requirements for this degree as stated in this catalog will remain for the duration of the students program.
