Theological education is in crisis. Major seminaries are closing. Fewer denominations require the Master of Divinity. These realities invite the question: what is the future of theological education for pastors.
In the midst of the craziness, Wesley Biblical Seminary is thriving. A big part of that is the launch of the Global Methodist Church.
In this episode of Theology Project, I sit down with Dr. Andy Miller - friend, colleague, and President of Wesley Biblical Seminary - to talk about why MDiv enrollments are up and how seminary isn't just job training for clergy. It's about becoming a certain kind of person.
