Now you can achieve a Master of Divinity in the time it takes you to stream your favorite show on Netflix thanks to Universal Monastery of the Milky Way.
According to UDoubleMW.org the MDiv30 curriculum “provides a solid theological foundation for ministry leaders to successfully engage the local and global issues of our day in a variety of contexts.”
“We’ve been ordaining for years and now we’re proud to offer a strong educational component,” said President Ralph Willow. “We’ve condensed classes which would traditionally be 4-semester hours into 3-dynamic life enriching minutes.”
While students can choose from a broad range of Bible, Church History, and Spiritual Formation core classes and electives, a strong sense of call to invest a half hour online may look like:

“We know making a decision to pursue advanced training is not an easy one,” said Willow, “which is why halfway through completion we’ve included a 15-second session with one of our certified spiritual speed directors at no extra cost.”
Complete with a one-click graduation ceremony playing a choice of Doxology or Pomp and Circumstance and a printable diploma (frames available at extra charge), applications are accepted on a rolling basis.

I’ve spent 28 years training men and women for service/ministry in a small, accredited Seminary in Hawaii. I never realized how easy it could have been. Instead of hours upon hours of study, classroom lectures, papers and final exams… I should have done what you just did. I could have taken those 28 years and squeezed them into … oh, say 6 months! Then I could have gone to Disneyland for the rest of the time!
Lol, I’ll see you on Space Mountain
Any word from the universe on a DMin program?
Ha! I’ll keep you posted
