Master of Arts in Apologetics & Prophetic Discernment (MAAPD)
Contending for the Faith. Exposing Deception. Watching for His Return.
Program Overview
The Master of Arts in Apologetics & Prophetic Discernment (MAAPD) is a specialized graduate program designed to equip saints for bold defense of biblical truth, faithful interpretation of prophetic Scripture, and spiritual vigilance in the face of growing end-time deception. Every course is grounded in the absolute authority of the Holy Bible, training students to identify false doctrine, refute error with humility, and guard the flock from spiritual compromise. This program does not traffic in sensationalism or speculation, but calls believers to sober-minded discernment rooted in the Word and illuminated by the Spirit. It is a program for those who long to speak truth without fear and see the Church prepared as a spotless Bride.
Program Duration
This program is designed to be completed in one and a half (1½) years of graduate-level study. Accommodations may be available for those balancing ministry responsibilities alongside academic study.
Who This Program Is For
This program is for believers who are called to stand on the front lines of doctrinal defense and prophetic interpretation — apologists, watchmen, evangelists, and teachers who carry a burden to equip the Church with truth in an age of lies. Whether you are already engaged in preaching, writing, media, or discernment ministry, or are sensing a call to contend for the faith in these last days, this program is for you. It is especially suited for those who are grieved by spiritual compromise, zealous for sound doctrine, and watchful for the signs of Christ’s soon return.
Credential Awarded
Students who successfully complete this program will be awarded the Master of Arts in Apologetics & Prophetic Discernment (MAAPD).
This program is offered exclusively for religious and ministerial purposes under California’s religious exemption provision (CEC § 94874(e)(1)).
Spiritual and Practical Outcomes
Graduates of this program will be able to defend the authority, sufficiency, and inerrancy of Scripture against modern attacks, including secular ideologies, heretical teachings, and mystical distortions. They will learn to expose doctrinal error with biblical accuracy and pastoral humility, never seeking controversy, but clarity and conviction. Students will also develop the ability to rightly divide prophetic Scriptures — especially concerning the last days — in light of historic Christian orthodoxy, not contemporary fads. Through writing, preaching, or digital media, they will be prepared to articulate the truth in ways that equip others to stand firm. Above all, they will be trained to help local congregations remain sober, steadfast, and discerning amid a rising tide of apostasy and false signs.
Registration Invitation
If the Lord has placed upon your heart a calling to contend for truth, expose deception, and warn the Body of Christ in these perilous times, we invite you to pursue this training with sobriety and faith. The hour is late. The deception is strong. And the Church needs watchmen on the walls who will not grow weary, who will speak as oracles of God, and who will shine the light of Scripture into every dark place. Come, be equipped for such a time as this.
