Christian Education |
| The Christian Education Program helps prepare students to teach in a wide variety of Christian ministries. Graduates are well prepared to take on the task of teaching Sunday School, planning VBS, and assisting in summer ministries. They study learning methods and educational philosophy. Students evaluate curriculum materials, teach lessons, and even have the chance to practice their skills in a church setting. | ||

Communication |
The Communications Program is designed to prepare men and women to serve Christ in Christian ministry through a special application of communication skills. The ability to effectively communicate is fundamental, no matter what area of service a person chooses. From basic public speaking to audio-visual, from radio broadcasting to dramatic ministries, doors are open to develop and expand your area of ministry. | ||

Ministerial |
| The Ministerial Program is designed to equip men and women to serve Christ in pastoral and evangelistic ministries. Three professional program options are offered: Pastoral Ministries, Ministerial with Greek, and Youth Ministries. In addition to the Ministerial program, a number of opportunities are available for practical outreach experiences: prison ministry, nursing home ministry, ministry targeting area youth, dramatic ministry, as well as opportunities to preach and teach in area churches. | ||

Missions |
The Missions Program is focused on preparing men and women to serve Christ in a cross-cultural setting. An annual Missions Convention is held on campus in the fall, Student Involvement (a campus missionary organization) plans activities on a monthly basis, and Fridays are designated as "Missions Chapels" where missionary speakers/programs are presented and a missionary awareness is encouraged. Typically, ten to fifteen percent of KMBC's student body is composed of international students, who provide a rich cultural context to supplement our academic programs. Opportunities for summer and mid-semester short-term missions trips are available and encouraged. | ||
