Master of Arts in Media Arts and Worship (MAMW)
The Master of Arts in Media Arts and Worship equips worship leaders, writers, and artists to integrate theological depth with creative excellence in the service of the church.
Where Theology Shapes Creative Worship
The MAMW is designed for those called to serve the church through music, writing, visual arts, and worship leadership. Students complete a shared core of Bible and theology coursework alongside focused training in culture formation, artistic development, and worship practice. By grounding creativity in sound doctrine and thoughtful reflection, the program equips graduates to lead and create in ways that reflect the gospel's beauty and truth.
