Welcome to the School of Ministry! If you are looking for a practical ministry program with strong academic foundations and offered by caring and committed faculty, you have landed in the right place.

We encourage you to take time to read more about our various majors and minors and our faculty. We offer majors in areas like Biblical Studies, Christian Leadership and Cross-Cultural and Urban Studies, as well as minors in areas like Youth Ministry and Christian Social Ministry. We think you'll agree that PBA is a wonderful place to further your understanding of God and His Word, and to train to fulfill God’s call upon your life.

God bless you as you make the critical choice of school and major. It would be our honor and privilege to be part of what God is doing in and through your life!

PBA is one of few schools offering a major in Christian Social Ministry. Our textbooks, which are used at other schools, too, were written by people on our faculty. South Florida is an exciting mixture of people, a true melting pot. Here, you don’t just take cross-cultural studies classes. You experience it.
