Is there a specific degree for studying preachers to be?

Depends on what college or university you're attending, and what you plan to do once you graduate. \n\nThere are two main paths - theology and divinity. Actually, I got my B.A. in Sociology (which was actually very helpful, along with a minor in religious studies), 1st M.A. in Social Psychology, 2nd M.Div., and Doctorate is dual, D.Min. and Ph.D. (to meet state requirements for counseling licensure). \n\nCheck with your church to find out what they actually require. If you don't have to meet someone else's requirements, all you have to do is pray. God will let you know what you need to do. Peace!

With a M.Div, you could become an ordained minister.  The other, you could take that and earn your PhD in divinity.

I got my husband a "preacher's license" on the Internet.  It was free, but can't remember the site.  Never did check and see if it was legal in our state.  It was more of a joke to us........but people do use them.  If you are a true Christian, then you can be ordained in some of the faiths and the get a state license.

As far as I know, NO university, in the civilised world, gives an MBA [Masters in Business Administration] degree in Theology [study of religion] - because religion is not yet officially classified as a 'business' !\nFrom which 'university' did you obtain this degree ? Must surely congratulate their Faculty for HONESTLY accepting the fact that religion has indeed become a full-fledged 'business !\nUnless you tell us, where you obtained your current degree, it will not be possible to advise you whether you can specialise further in the fields that you list !

Women should not be preachers.  The men should lead the congregation, the bible says men shall lead the family.  They should be leading the church family as well.

Talk to a pastor and ask him or her where they went for their education. Not sure if its the same as a priest, a seminary.

McArthur Foundation\nFord Foundation\nCarnegi Foundation\n\nSome of the churches also offer scholarships for such studies.

Working for the Lord not pay very well unless you plan on misleading people for money. SO, the job will be what the Lord lead you to.\nReligious Studies work you through a systematic learning of the Bible. Cultures of the times, so you understand things like a man giving you his shoe or Lot offering his Daughters. You learn specifics of every book of the Bible, so, you understand why God do as He do. You may want to learn the Biblical Greek  and if you can handle that then learn the Biblical Hebrew. You study some things like Theology, Semantics and other stuff to help you understand the Bible, God, Jesus etc.\nYouth Ministry, you study some of the above Basics, Childhood Development, Sociology, Teaching Methods, and some Basic Psychology stuff (I find Debatable). You learn of how Youth Programs are organized and how to utilize the Youth into the Ministry. Missionary work and fun trips to do these things.\nThere a lot to learn, but, if, you not want a paper to show on the wall, you can forget the State Core Curriculum (Math, English etc.) Just take the MAIN Studies and Regular World History and World Literature you be surprised what these two can do in your Bible Understanding.\nI learned and just use the knowledge to teach others what they want to know. As, I said, not much pay, but, I have Peace and Happiness. I guess God/Jesus loves me, that all I really want. Hope this helps you, most Colleges of this type learning are Private and Tuition may be more than a State Funded College. But, there are Grants, Scholarship and Student Loans. I highly advise against getting ANY Student Loans, you do not need this Debt right out of College. Some Colleges do have programs you can work on Campus and make some money, they easy jobs.

Bishop T.D. Jakes is one of my favorite preachers. Very insightful, and down to Earth. He speaks on a level that all can understand too.

What I know is you must have a tertiary education in a seminary or a convent.  Then from there, you continue to have Theology as your major subjects.  \n\nSome of the known prerequisities are, you have not submitted to any sexual activity before, is willing to give up most of your material wealth, you will be given a new name, you are obligated to preach, to be and live among the poor, etc.\n\nWhat is important is that you FEEL that you are being CALLED for that vocation.

There isn't such a thing.  I would suggest you find out what the correct name of the degree you are looking to attain and go from there.

A self-righteous preacher preaches the word of god per say, while branding not of his denomination as damned, until they see the light. A preacher driven by the holy spirit should be a man of universal vision, preaching harmony with all of 'mankind.' Even the old testament had the parable of 'The Good Samaritan', exemplifying that faith and virtue are sometimes confused.

Most major Universities have a Jewish studies/oriental studies/religious studies department where you can take a course in Biblical Hebrew. THE Place to learn is JTS - see http://www.jtsa.edu/progs/bib/bible.pdf which trains most US Jewish studies academics.\n\nAnother option is to take some time and come to Israel. The Hebrew University has an excellent overseas school with summer courses (if you can't take a whole year or semester) see http://overseas.huji.ac.il/sum_course_lang_bib.php\n\nI would think that Christian Bible Colleges also offer such classes, but I have no experience there
