Youth Ministry

NNU recognizes that God calls men and women to a wide variety of ministries. Today, NNU students are fortunate to be able to customize their response to a divine call by specializing in a variety of ministry areas. The youth ministry major prepares students for a variety of youth ministry settings, including both local church and parachurch contexts. For those students from the Church of the Nazarene, educational requirements for ordination as an elder in the Church of the Nazarene also require the Christian Ministry minor along with this major. Other denominations' requirements may be met through the selection of elective courses.

SPOTLIGHT

NNU has prepared me for my future with everything that I’ve been able to learn. I’ve been able to learn about God in a new way, Scripture, but also about myself. Going into ministry you have to be grounded in your own Faith before and NNU has given me the opportunity to be grounded in my own faith, to express my love for God, and show that to others.
