Global Theological Education
Because we are passionate about helping the churches obey the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ, the faculty and staff of the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary are ready and willing, indeed eager, to educate ministers from around the world. However, we also know that we must change to meet the contours of this changing world even as we advocate the unchanging gospel. This is why we are passionate about engaging in global theological education. We know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the blessings that come by his Word and Spirit. We know there is a huge and desperate world that needs our students, whether they come from the cities and fields of the United States or the many nations throughout the world. We know that we must seek every venue possible and by whatever means possible, whether here on Seminary Hill or there on the field, to train our students. And we know we need to help growing ministers proclaim with passion, power, and precision God’s saving Word, for the Day of the Lord approaches and the needs are too great to remain complacent. The fields indeed are white unto harvest, and we are compelled to train the laborers which the churches are praying the Lord will send into the harvest. May the Lord grant our prayers, bless our efforts for his glory, and show us the way to bring theological education at its best to the world in its overwhelming need.
