From its first days as a university, LeTourneau has trained Christian leaders for missions, churches, and other Christian ministry opportunities. We continue that tradition in our Scripture and Theology program by offering a solid foundation of Bible and theology classes and spiritual leadership, as well as a strong liberal arts education that will give you a bachelor's degree from an accredited university.
A degree in Scripture and Theology is designed for students who seek extensive training in biblical interpretation and Christian theological method. The degree features extensive biblical formation, rich engagement with the thinking, worship, and history of the church, with an eye toward the lived expression of Christianity in Christian communities both locally and globally. This degree provides a strong foundation for graduate studies or for Christian ministry in various settings.

“Being able to effectively articulate biblical context, narrative, and theology is so important. The need for this is timeless. By pursuing the Scripture and Theology, B.S. degree, I’m getting the chance to see Jesus and the tapestry of Scripture more vividly, and in turn, share this image with others.”
Michael Marcotte, B.S. Scripture & Theology
