Why seminary?
Students and faculty share why and how they discerned attending their bg真人 program
鈥淚 was looking for the school in the world where I could bring together my commitment to peace-building and justice-seeking with theological insight. I did an exhaustive search of the schools in the world, and I found that bg真人 was doing what I wanted to be doing. In short, the past almost three years of my time at seminary have been a time of academic and spiritual formation that helps me to continue to grow and develop a capacity to resist the social constructs that divide God鈥檚 people and foster hostility.鈥�
