What to Study
Invest in Your Calling!
Acquiring academic knowledge is always important, but being able also to use that knowledge as a practical tool for ministry is just as valuable. Livets Ord Theological Seminary provides professional, academic and spiritual training for theologians, pastors, missionaries, teachers, and for a wide range of other ministries. The purpose of the University is to produce students who can proclaim the Christian faith in the power of the Holy Spirit, defend the evangelical faith, pursue the truth in a scholarly way, and be a beacon for the truth, to exert influence on the society on all levels. If you are serious in your desire to serve God in ministry for the rest of your life, you need education and intellectual training. Be a good steward of all that God has placed within you – invest in your calling!
    Livets Ord Theological Seminary offers academic degree programs in Higher Biblical Studies and Missions, and in Education. Students can choose the major concentration of their studies within areas of theology, pastoral ministry, missions, and pedagogy.



Christian maturity comes from a solid knowledge of the Bible and the ability to learn from the past, to think deeply, and to formulate an integrated and balanced Christian theology of life with clearly defined goals, purposes, and values.


According to Ephesians 4:11, evangelists, pastors, and teachers have been appointed in the Church to prepare God’s people for works of service for the building up of the Body of Christ. In order to prepare others, they themselves first need to grow in knowledge and faith.



The programs in Missions are designed to train competent professionals to serve as missionaries in a diversity of cultural settings.


Pedagogical studies will develop knowledge in the foundations of Christian education, increase understanding of organization and leadership, develop skills to identify students’ abilities and needs.
