Recognizing the strategic role of the youth minister, youth leaders, and mentors in the spiritual development of young people (middle school, high school, and college), William Jessup University offers a Bachelor of Arts in Youth Ministry. The vision of the youth ministry program is to reach the next generation by preparing students to evangelize and disciple youth and their families in various settings including the church, parachurch, and other local and global ministries. The mission of the youth ministry program is to creatively educate students to be transformational leaders that inspire youth to live the Christian life.
