Whether you chose to major in Social Work or Criminal Justice, you will be learning about social sciences from a Biblical perspective. You will be able to demonstrate the compassion and love of Christ to those around you, showing the hope of the world is in the Lord. What’s more, each professor has years of experience as a practitioner and uses that real-life knowledge in the classroom. The classes are full of discussion about current issues and age-old problems.
