From Amazon.com: "Christians should evaluate philosophy by biblical criteria. This will shed greater light on the developments in the history of philosophy and better prepare us for the intellectual challenges of our time. The fall of Adam brought intellectual as well as moral corruption on the human race, and the effects of the fall can be seen in the work of philosophers, most of whom try to understand the world autonomously through reasoning apart from God's revelation. Some philosophers have appealed to God's revelation, but their work has often been compromised with the wisdom of the world. Revelation should inform reason, and not the other way round. In the past, even Christian theology was corrupted by the movement toward intellectual autonomy, creating the tradition of liberalism, which has unhappily dominated academic theology down to the present day. But there is hope a new generation of Christian thinkers take God's Word seriously. Frame's unique new contribution augments that process."

Are you looking for quality, authoritative information on seminary or divinity schools? If so, you've come to the right place. This site is designed to help anyone who's interested in attending seminary (or divinity school) or maybe just wants to learn more about theological higher education. You'll find numerous pages that address typical topics as well as common questions. You'll also find brief introductions and fact-sheets on several schools. There are many places on the site to submit questions, so please feel free to do so.
Please note - this site is intended to be non-partisan. There are a wide range of seminaries and divinity schools listed, from very conservative to very liberal. The goal is to help you find the right school for your needs, regardless of where you identify yourself on the theological spectrum.
For example, the school profiles are intended to reflect the school's own presentation of itself. Schools that stress their belief in the Bible as the literal word of God will fall into the conservative or very conservative camp. Similarly, schools that stress social justice, inclusivity, sexual diversity, and so forth will more likely be identified as more liberal. Neither of these terms are meant to be restrictive or judgmental, merely descriptive.
Whoever, then, thinks that he understands the Holy Scriptures, or
any part of them, but puts such an interpretation upon them as does not
tend to build up this twofold love of God and our neighbor, does not
yet understand them as he ought. - St. Augustine, On Christian Doctrine
How you use this site depends upon what brought you here. If you know that you want to pursue graduate theological education but are curious about what makes them distinctive, then you should likely begin with the Seminary Listings section. If you're only vaguely knowledgeable about higher theological education, then it's likely best to begin with the various articles to the left and read them carefully.
One section of the site to read carefully is the FAQ page, where you'll find answers to some of the most common questions that potential seminarians ask. If you have a question yourself, you are more than welcome to use the contact page to get in touch with the webmaster and submit as many questions as you like. All questions are answered in the order received.
The largest section of the website is devoted to brief profiles of various schools. You may search for schools alphabetically, by geographic region, or by denominational affiliation. If there is a particular school not listed that you'd like to see a profile on, please let us know.
If you would like an individual consultation on attending or choosing a seminary, please use the contact form to the left to ask any questions you might have.
