Testimonials

“The Biblical Studies master’s program at ATS has broadened my knowledge of God, scripture, self, and ministry. The faculty and other students connect the technical or ethereal with the practical and applicable in each course and unit of study. The online environment lends itself to both serious scholarship and community learning. While I am currently a grateful student, I am well on my way to becoming a proud alumnus.”
