Brief Description of Programme

The programme aims both to offer a conceptual/intellectual framework for the study of Christian spirituality and to develop the knowledge and skills appropriate to an informed, intelligent and critical examination of the Christian spiritual tradition and of contemporary manifestations of Christian spiritual belief and practice.

It is envisaged that this MA programme will be of interest to a wide group of people: primarily those in ministry, and teachers of religious education, but also people in business, and any whose professional life or vocational work involves religious questions. It is suited to people from a broad range of Christian traditions, both lay and ordained, who are or hope to be engaged in ministry, as well as to those who wish to study Christian spirituality at postgraduate level for personal enrichment.

Part-time evening study and the range of options enable the programme to be widely accessible and the meet a range of individual interests.
