If You Go to Seminary…

If you ever decide to go to seminary, I hope you will consider Bethel Seminary. I have been a part of other learning institutions where professors want everyone to know how many degrees they have. They make sure that you call them “Dr.” in all your correspondence with them. At Bethel Seminary, my professors don’t go by “Dr.” or “Professor” or “Almighty,” but by Kyle, Joel, and Jeanine. (Incidentally, they are some of the most brilliant people I have ever known, yet they don’t demand their students to recognize their academic achievements.) Their power isn’t derived from a title, it’s derived from the authority that wisdom brings.

    The best part is that you can go to Bethel no matter where you live! Check out the InMinistry program here: http://seminary.bethel.edu/programs/virtual/inmin...

    Is Joel Lawrence one of your profs? He's a good friend. Tell him I said hello!

    I went to Master's Seminary. It was tough for me to be that focused on some super intense stuff back then. I'm planning on working on another degree soon from one of the schools in Portland,OR.
