Ryan BurnsWhile scouring the internet today for more information to help us all on our seminary journeys I stumbled across a great post on tHe Resurgence (not to be confused with theresurgence.com). The post, Advice for Seminary Students with Families (&...
Ok, before I was just a guy going to seminary I was just a virtual guy going to a virtual seminary. Yes, I was an online student. The journey for me began about 7 years ago when I was trying to determine if God was calling me to seminary. I’m...
In my never ending quest to provide information that will help you decide on the right seminary for you, I occasionally find other people who have weighed in on the subject. Today I came across an older post by Mark Denver at togetherforthegospel...
This post will help narrow your list by asking a very simply question that The Clash asked in 1981, “Should I stay or should I go?” Now, location is a big deal for some people. Are you willing to move across the country to go to seminary...
UPDATE: Here are the latest numbers from 2014-2015. The average tuition for a full time seminary student(14-15 school year) was $14,726. (Data Tables) ORIGINAL POST: According to a report from the Association of Theological...
Professor, pastor, and theologian, Dr. John Frame wrote a pamphlet called, “Learning at the feet of Jesus: A Case for Seminary Training.” This is a quick and easy read that will, hopefully, help you in your decision making process. Here...
So, one of the books that helped me the most in finally making the decision to attend seminary was Bruce K. Waltke’s book, Finding the Will of God: A Pagan Notion? In his book Waltke masterfully addresses an issue that is all too common in the...
Distance education has come a long way. Seven years ago I decided to try and earn my degree through one seminary’s distance program. It was pretty good, but I still have stacks and stacks of tapes and giant notebooks. The quality of teaching...
253 seminaries… that’s a bunch. So, how do you decide on which one to attend? Well, this is seminary, so prayer is always a good starting place. As you prayerfully submit your decision making process to the Lord, there are a couple...
So, I haven’t actually started seminary yet, so for me this is an area that I’m giving a lot of consideration. I really haven’t figured out how everyone in seminary pulls this one off. I mean, you need to work to pay the bills but...
Ok, if you’re going to seminary I am going to assume that you like to read. If you don’t… um, yeah, seminary is not going to be fun for you. So, here at goingtoseminary.com you’ll probably find lots of book recommendations...
Anyone else read those children’s bibles and find yourself going, “oh, that is so wrong.” If I’m reading one to my kids and I find bad theology, I’ll typically just change the story to be a bit more in line with the...
I discovered this one while starting to work on the scholarship list last night and figured it might be worth its own post. Apparently, UPS has a scholarship program for its employees (can you say $3000 a year). Not only that, but it is available to...
Ok… not everyone is a blogger. But if you are, did you know that there is actually lots of money to be made in blogging? Now, I know what you’re thinking… Writing my opinions about things and getting paid… SWEET! Well, if it...
Welcome. This page is, by far, the most visited page on GoingtoSeminary.com. Odds are that you are here because your googled “Seminary Scholarship” or some derivative thereof. If that is the case, first, welcome to GoingtoSeminary.com...
Going to seminary? You’ll need a computer. I’ve gotta say that we’re a mac family… so we’re taking the 20 inch iMac and the (old) 15 inch powerbook (512 mb). However, I’d really like to get the 19 inch MacBook Pro...
So, I’m really quite pleased with this wordpress theme. I haven’t really dug down into the depths of it yet… but it looks so stinking nice. Thanks Brian.
