The Dokes Ministry Scholars program, an accelerated pastoral degree program, is the perfect option for high-achieving students who have felt the call to full-time ministry or theological study. Because it is also a scholars program, you will receive a competitive scholarship and join a tight-knit cohort of peers.
After five years in this dual-degree program, you will receive a Bachelor of Arts in either biblical studies or Christian ministries from Gordon College and a Master of Divinity or Master of Arts from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary.
In the fall of this year, the Dokes Ministry Scholars participated in a tour of American Christianity in Boston led by Dr. Roger Green, Professor Emeritus of Gordon College. Students followed Dr. Green’s lead wandering through the streets of Beacon Hill taking in key historical sites. They wrapped up the perfect autumn day by having lunch at Quincy Market before heading back to campus.
