Study religion through a uniquely Christian perspective.

Here, you can engage with complicated theological issues in an environment that values relentless searching for truth. Dive into biblical passages with faculty who encourage you to think boldly and ask the hard questions. Explore faith and culture firsthand through by studying in places like Greece, Rome, or Israel. Put your own faith in context by taking courses on Buddhism, Judaism, Islam, and other world religions.

The experiences you have in Calvin's religion program will make you a more well-rounded and capable Christian scholar.
