The Master of Arts degree in Counseling (M.A.C.) prepares graduates to provide counseling services in a variety of settings such as community counseling centers, drug and alcohol treatment facilities, college and university counseling centers, Christian counseling centers, private psychiatric hospitals, abuse shelters, churches, rehabilitation centers, and private practice. While there is an increasing interest in professional counseling, there is also a growing disillusionment with the "morally neutral" approach which is often practiced today.  The M.A.C. offers a distinctively different approach to counseling by starting with Biblical presuppositions as the student develops appropriate counseling skills based on counseling theory and research. 

Presently, all classes leading to the MAC degree are taught in the evening and on the weekend.
