Tabor College

Undergraduate

Tabor’s Biblical and Religious Studies major is designed to help students be an informed and effective disciple of Jesus Christ in today’s world. It is extremely flexible, allowing you to take advantage of the wide variety of courses offered by the Bible, Religion and Philosophy department. Since many credit hours overlap with Tabor’s general education requirements, the major easily serves as a second major for those pursuing vocations in another field of study.

• Philosophy
• Christian Ministry

“My Bible and philosophy degrees have proven to be more-than-adequate preparation for the academic rigors of graduate theological education. But my course work at Tabor also challenged me to integrate a search for truth with a search for vocational clarity and spiritual maturity. Conversations with faculty members and fellow students helped me to discern the way I was being called to serve Christ and his kingdom.” – Matt Insley

Ministry

Students can explore a variety of ministry opportunities.

• Mission—Urban and International
  
• Youth Ministry
  
• Camping Ministry
  
• Music Ministry
  The Biblical and Religious Studies major is also an excellent way to prepare for graduate school and seminary.
