What does someone in seminary do?

"get back to work!"

goog_1726817030I have had several people asking me about my seminary experience and what my classes are like. I have found that most of the classes (not including Honors Greek.) I have already taken to be a challenge to my theological convictions and personal paradigms rather than intellectually straining. (I will definately credit ma/pa & the Grace Bible Church Internship for giving me a firm theological education.  I have definitely had an advantage over other students coming from non-Bible College backgrounds.)

In two or three of my classes, we had the option to write a paper for an 'A' and I found them to be fairly challenging and interesting to work on. I have posted one of those papers here for your viewing pleasure. This paper is typical of our assignments and while seeming complicated; mostly involves good organization skills.

Also, as seminarians we meet once a day for 'Chapel' where we have worship and hear a speaker.

Ironically, I have found that most of the fruit of the "seminary experience" has not been at the seminary itself. Most of my raw learning/meditating has come from reading, studying and writing off campus which later gets  polished in the classroom.
