Freaked out that we only offer one degree and it’s in missions? What if you’re not 100% sure you’re supposed to be a missionary? We know you might be asking, so allow us to answer by first stating that we think you should be a missionary! If you’re still reading, we really believe what we just said. Missions, as a career choice, has expanded so vastly over the course of the past two decades that any true follower of Jesus, reflecting His character, and loving people, can be an amazing missionary. Sure you’ve got some things to learn in addition to what I just described but that’s why you should come to BCOM. We have alumni who have planted churches all over the world, come alongside existing churches and become invaluable in assisting them, pioneered new fields, started businesses in sensitive nations and through them are reaching lost people, feeding the hungry, teaching, using technology and arts to communicate Christ . . . We could go on and on.
If you’re an artist, a musician, have a passion for youth, can fix cars, preach, raise a family or edit video then you can be a great missionary. At BCOM you’ll get the theological foundations and the cross cultural skills needed to do what you’re good at, somewhere in the world where Christ is not known.
Our graduates, by the way, are also pastors, youth pastors, Kingdom-minded business people, politicians and the list goes on. You will not be limiting your options by coming to Bethany, you’ll be expanding them.
