This Week in SBC History
- Groundbreaking for new Wake Forest College
The ministry landscape is changing faster than ever, and ministers of every calling need versatile training for today’s church and marketplace. And so, in partnership with Dallas Baptist University, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary is now enrolling students in their new MDiv+MBA program. With a biblically faithful foundation, hands-on ministry experience, and contemporary business training, this is a program for tomorrow’s pastors, missionaries, entrepreneurs, and lay leaders. To learn more, visit swbts.edu/mdivmba.
I am glad to see that SW Seminary is including “Contemporary Business Training” for ministers. I just wish I had access to this type of training when I was a student at Southwestern. How very practical when (not if) a minister is fired from their position in ministerial service. If they are trained only in theology, etc. when they are removed by the church or denominational agency where they serve, what do they do to “put food on the table” for their family? Thank you for letting me express my opinion.
