MISD/IABC BIBLICAL COUNSELING DEGREE & CERTIFICATION TRACK

You Can Earn Your Degree in Biblical Counseling as You Also Complete the Requirements for Certification* with the International Association of Biblical Counselors!

Master's is committed to the belief that God's Word is totally adequate to meet the deepest
spiritual needs of individuals everywhere, in every generation, in every culture.  We understand the
Scriptures to be totally sufficient as a handbook for the human heart, soul, and mind.  Consequently, we
believe that Biblical Counseling is superior to all other methodologies.  Furthermore, we believe that one
of the most critical needs of the church today is men and women of God properly trained in the ministry of Biblical Counseling.

Therefore, we have partnered together with a world leader in the promotion of Biblical Counseling, the International Association of Biblical Counselors, to make available at the undergraduate through doctoral level, a complete degree program which also includes all of the course and practicum requirements of Certification by IABC.  In fact, program director, Dr. David Tyler, serves on the IABC Board of Directors.

Whether you are seeking to earn your Associate, Bachelor's, Master's or Doctoral degree in Biblical Counseling, we believe that the dual Degree/Certification Track is the most logical and efficient path to earning both your degree and qualifying to become certified as a Biblical counselor!  Please review the information below, and then contact an MISD Admissions Counselor right away.  More than ever before, the Church of Jesus Christ needs men and women called and trained to bring the hope and healing that is possible only through the power of God and His Holy Word.  NOTE:  Graduates of the Degree/Certification Track will receive the seal of the IABC on their degree.

*  IABC Certification requires that the student complete the entire required curriculum, have all financial obligations to IABC and MISD satisfied, successfully pass a final examination, and meet the spiritual, doctrinal, practical requirements of Certification.  The goal of the program is to prepare the student to meet these requirements, but  compliance, as with any academic or certification program,  is the individual responsibility of the student.  Therefore, Certification is contingent rather than guaranteed.
