MDiv (North American Church Planting)⁺


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Graduate Degrees

The North American Church Planting (MDiv NACP) track is a specialized 82 hour degree program offered by Southeastern in partnership with the North American Mission Board (NAMB) of the Southern Baptist Convention. The MDiv NACP track combines a campus based curriculum with field based experiences where academics are applied in a North American church planting context. This degree is designed to support all students interested in church planting, including those who are placed in any of the NAMB SEND NA Farm System categories.

Curriculum Design

The MDiv NACP track must be completed with an overall GPA of 2.0 or better. It is designed to combine learning in the classroom setting along with supervised field internships and at least one mission trip experience in a North American church plant location. North America provides a laboratory wherein students can experience church planting while receiving academic instruction and on-site mentoring from experienced church planters.

Students who successfully complete the M.Div. North American Church Planting track are equipped to become effective church planters who make a kingdom impact. Students will be encouraged to plant their lives among people in some of the least-reached places in North America. Please note, while the MDiv NACP track can easily work in conjunction with the NAMB Farm System, applying for and becoming a NAMB missionary is a separate and distinct process from studying at SEBTS and completing the MDiv NACP track.
