Embark on a transformative journey through theological education as we bring to the forefront an enlightening discussion with Greg Henson, president of Kairos University. Through our conversation, you'll gain a deeper understanding of how Kairos is revolutionizing seminary education with its Competency-Based Theological Education (CBTE) approach, detailed in Greg's latest book. We confront the skepticism about CBTE's academic integrity head-on, illustrating Kairos's unwavering commitment to excellence as affirmed by ATS and HLC accreditations.We grapple with the current landscape of theological education, facing the winds of change in church attendance, funding, and the crucial relationship between seminaries and local communities. Greg and I also illuminate the parallels between today's transition from Christendom to post-Christendom and the early church's own adaptive journey, as chronicled in the Book of Acts. Delving into the CBTE model, we reveal its focus on mentorship and community-based learning, which offers a vibrant and relevant path for today's theological scholars.The episode doesn't end with just insights; it offers a glimpse into a groundbreaking financial model that defies the norms of educational economics. Discover how Kairos's subscription-based tuition model has maintained affordability amidst a sea of rising costs, and ponder how such a revolutionary approach could reshape the financial landscape of education. We also celebrate the power of partnerships and community, as Kairos aligns with institutions like Luther House of Study to forge new, robust discipleship pathways within various faith traditions.

The Danger of a Seminary Education

Biblical Christian Worldview

Listening to some podcasts and reading some of the deep theological constructs currently being debated by seminarians, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the minutia. It reminds me of a quote many years ago by J. Vernon McGee who frequently stated his goal was to present the Bible in a clear, straightforward manner. Quoting Dr. Ironside, his desire in teaching the Bible was to “put the cookies on the bottom shelf”. There is nothing inherently wrong with seminaries and Biblical scholars debating the finer points of theology. However, there are at least five areas of caution for the layperson.ecently I had a conversation with a very educated brother in Christ who posed the question, “Does one need to be seminary-trained to be a church pastor?” My initial opinion was that a Biblical Christian seminary provides a foundation for teaching and acts as a filter, both in core theology and an ability to deliver value to a pastoral role and/or missionary opportunity. However, stepping back, there are areas where we should not accept the value of educational institutions, even seminaries, without a degree of skepticism and caution. This is not to say that there are not wonderful seminaries and Bible colleges that teach students to be amazing disciplers and evangelists. We just need to not take formal Christian education at face value.

Introduction Here is your 2-minute tip based on chapter 1 of the book, “Plain speaking: How to preach and teach effectively" by David Bercot.  My first preaching experience: Half a sermon; profound sense of being an imposter; doing the opposite of the advice I was given. I was not asked again for a long time! What God wants is more important than what you want, your peers want, those who evaluate you want, and your listeners want.  Three necessary things according to Bercot: The anointing of the Holy Spirit. More on this next week, but what does it mean to you to rely on the Spirit in your speaking? The desire to learn to preach. Note, desire is not the same as confidence. It is an inner motivation, not about presentation skill or experience.  Some basic training on how to prepare an effective message. Note, it is important to avoid the extremes. God can use the untrained, but why would you want to ignore the resources available to you. Training is hugely valuable, but your confidence should be in God and his word, not your training.  “What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs.” (Matthew 10:27 NIV11) Jesus would not command them to do that which he was not prepared to equip them for. Conclusion Do you believe God will equip you? Do you a real desire to speak God to people? Are you willing to be trained? Has today's tip been worth two minutes of your time? I hope so.

The seminary education landscape has changed considerably, but its focus has not. The ultimate goal continues to be training church ministry leaders. What has changed is the definition of seminary education. Many students want to go deeper in their theological and biblical knowledge without necessarily a degree or ordination. What will the future hold? How can biblical institutions meet their students where they are and adapt accordingly? After completing an overseas tenure in Haiti, Matt Ayars, President at Wesley Biblical Seminary, talks to us about how seminary education needs to change in order to flourish. Matt elaborates on what he believes the challenges and opportunities are, and why it's important for seminaries to teach their students how to think theologically. Join us as we discuss: - The focus of seminary education and what has changed (06:13) - The top challenges that seminaries face today and the opportunities (14:04) - What seminaries will look like 20 years from now (23:02) To hear this interview and many more like it, subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or our website or search for Biblical Higher Ed Talk in your favorite podcast player. Hosted by Ausha.

President Javier Viera from Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary and Indiana Area Bishop Julius Trimble are Rev. Dr. Brad Miller's guests on Episode 44 of The United Methodist People Podcast for an in-depth conversation about seminary education in challenging times. President Viera assumed leadership of the Evanston, Illinois campus on January 1, 2021, after serving on the faculty and administration of Drew University School of Theology. A native of San Juan, Puerto Rico, Viera is the first person of color and the first Latino to hold the office of president in the seminary’s 167-year history. President Viero spoke about his personal faith in Jesus Christ and his pathway which lead him to the Presidency at G-ETS prior to diving into a conversation about the challenges and opportunities in theological education in the present context of society and matters impacting the United Methodist Church. President Viero quoted the Spanish poet Machado “making the road as we walk it” as descriptive of the situation facing seminaries. In particular, President Viera said “one of the things that that we are facing as a seminary is the fact that we're training people for a world that we do not yet fully understand, and that we aren't certain of what it will look like.” He talked about theological education is a gift to the church because often the seminary is the place for engaging in dialogue and critical analysis of, of the brokenness of the world and wanting to be a part of, of the healing and the restoration, and resourcing the place of the church to lead in that regard. The conversation led to a discussion of the purpose of graduate theological education itself. He concluded beyond academics in many ways seminary is a graduate school of leadership, and of public service, and of sending people out into the world to serve in those capacities. This is a must listen to any United Methodist leaders invested and interested in the importance and future of seminary education.
