What kinds of jobs can I get with a doctorate in Theology?

I have been in love with the subject of theology for all my life. I am a double major of Philosophy and Religious studies and planning on getting a masters-doctorate in theology.





I know I want to become either a deacon or pastor, but say I change my mind, what jobs are out there that are comforting and relaxing (not hardcore competitive) with a doctorate in Theology?





What exactly are the requirements to become a church convention speaker/leader/organizer? Can I become some sort of religious advisor/councelor for people with problems they need to talk about?

Reply:Most people don't end up using their degree. I have hired people from all gamuts. Just having a degree proves a certain amount of "sticktoitness". Follow your passion in your spare time if you can't do it for a living.
Reply:THE POPE, but failing that, a theologian, an archivist for theological writings, a curator at a religion-based museum, a consultant on theological matters for TV/movies/books (DaVinci code and Passion Of The Christ didn't just pop out of nowhere), you could be a writer. There are also psychiatrist-like counselors which are becoming popular now who consult people and give them advice but from a religious angle, that's a pretty hot profession, I've hears.
Reply:Well you could probably be a clergyman, or a teacher of theology, those are the two that come to mind right off.
Reply:Professor of Theology or Philosophy

Depending on denomination--broadcasting and the like


Corespondent


Tent-maker overseas (This means move into the missions field however, this would not be laid back.)


Camp Manager





After becoming "ordained" as a minister you would be able to advise/counsel





As far as speaking for conventions look up conventions that pertain to your denomination and email them. Provide them with samples of your lectures or sermons. Write a disposition or book that will get your ideas out to the public
