MA in Global Leadership
School of Mission and Theology
The Master of Arts in Global Leadership (MAGL) joins years of experience in communal formation with breakthroughs in online education to offer a transformative dynamic of peer leaders sharing life and learning together. Designed for leaders with at least four years of experience in a church, mission, nonprofit, or business role, the MAGL’s format supports students in their own ministry context as they study. Rooted in the conviction that a leader’s role is to help others come alongside God’s ongoing mission in the world, MAGL students grow in their understanding of what God is doing in their own lives as well as in culture and the Scriptures, equipping them to live missionally in their leadership and to influence those around them to do the same.

Practical, Experiential, and Holistic
As a cohort program that builds on your experience and emphasizes practical application, your ministry and leadership will be strengthened and transformed. As you wrestle with theoretical concepts and exchange input with your cohort peers, you will apply newfound insight to your leadership role and your relationships for holistic formation.
Global Perspectives
Studying with others from around the world, you’ll be exposed to global trends and cultural differences—equipping you with the broadened perspective and encouragement to embrace your role as a missional change agent in your own context.
