We are committed to being informed by the 20 centuries of confessing that shape what we understand as the historic Christian faith. Our changing world challenges us to find fresh and relevant ways to express the eternal and abiding truths of the historic Christian faith to those we seek to reach and serve. The seminary understands itself to be a specialized community of God's people that is called and sent to educate leaders for the church. We believe that theological education is a process of lifelong learning. Our purpose is to educate missional leaders who are able to minister effectively in providing theological leadership for Christian communities.
Graduates demonstrate the capacity to serve as missional leaders in Christian communities.
Christian communities are being led to become missional as a result of our graduates providing leadership within them. Graduates engage in practices of lifelong learning. We also serve this same purpose within the church catholic. We are committed to working with students from any and all Christian traditions who seek to serve the church catholic worldwide. We seek to increase the number and participation of students from other Christian traditions.
