A Word from Wesley

Graduation: Looking Back and Moving Forward - by AHyun Lee

By Beth Ludlum on

I still vividly remember my first day at Wesley. I was so excited by the professors’ and students’ warm greetings, full of heart-felt concern and eager to begin deep friendships with other students.

Now, I am preparing my next step – a PhD. After studying here, I have decided I want to teach in a seminary because I think theological education is the key to transforming the church.

Shifting the Theological Paradigm - by Jen McClurg

By Beth Ludlum on

One thing I am really enjoying about Wesley is how I get a new outlook on things during nearly every class.

Last semester, in my Old Testament class, we were talking about Job. Our professor brought up the phrase "There, but for the grace of God, go I."

Church Basement Roadshow - July 31

Three authors/friends/public speakers hit the road for a summer, barnstorming churches around the country in a cross between an old time tent revival and the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. Sponsored by Wesley Theological Seminary, Tony Jones, Doug Pagitt, and Mark Scandrette will present a 90-minute show (including a 20-minute intermission) that will combine humor and passion, speaking and video, preaching and dialogue. Audiences will be entertained, to be sure, but, more importantly, they will be given a vision of an alternative Christianity, one that it woefully lacking in today’s world—this alternative is a Christianity of adventurous theology, passionate faithfulness, postmodern wit, and unrelenting concern for the justice and peace that God offers.
