Description

Communicating the good news of the gospel in today's world requires that you're theologically prepared, practically equipped, and spiritually mature. We integrate a strong academic program with supervised ministry opportunities in our vocational formation programs. In other words: you learn, and you live what you learn. When you do, you help us fulfill our mission - to prepare people to lead in ministry, to give them what they need to respond to the Holy Spirit's call throughout their lives, to bring nations to Christ, build His church, and extend God's kingdom. Our professors use a rich variety of academic, professional, and personal gifts to train men and women for effective ministry. They invest themselves personally in helping you develop your God-given gifts in ways that promote spiritual maturity and integrate faith and life. To prepare you for visionary leadership in the church and world, we offer courses of study in preaching, worship, leadership, educational ministry, youth ministry, missions and church growth, and pastoral care and counseling. In each of these areas, we teach from a scripturally Reformed position. We are committed to the Bible as God's Word and to the confessional standards of the Belgic Confession (1561), the Heidelberg Catechism (1563), and the Canons of Dort (1618-1619) as faithful interpretations of that Word. This perspective enables our students to interact with -- and effectively speak to -- a broader ecumenical Christian community and a post-modern world. Calvin Theological Seminary has been equipping people to envision their participation in the kingdom of God since 1876. We will continue to do so for the glory of God.
