Europe will be transformed as we reach university students with the gospel. Jesus told us to make disciples of all nations, and this includes the university campus. Campus ministry is a specialised calling requiring not only great character, solid theology, and unique leadership ability; it also involves specialised application in the areas of evangelism, discipleship, and leadership development. Further, we must be able to effectively and thoughtfully engage the unique secularised postmodern context of Europe. This track will equip you with the skills and concepts necessary to be an effective minister of the gospel to Europe’s universities.
