Pursuing a Mind for Truth and a Heart for God: Why Seminary Education Matters

By Dr. Don Sweeting

Why would anyone in their right mind go to seminary? Well, seminaries matter-not just any seminaries but seminaries that take the gospel of Jesus Christ and the truth of the Bible seriously. Seminaries shape Christian leaders, especially pastors. Pastors shape churches. Churches shape families. Families shape communities. Communities shape countries.And yet, many people do not really know what a seminary is all about. This book aims to remedy that in two ways. First, by encouraging the reader, whether you ever take a seminary class or not, to have a mind for truth and a heart for God. Second, by explaining how seminary plays a vital role in helping you grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ.In short, this book is perfect for anyone who is even dabbling with the idea of more effective Christian service-or perhaps becoming a pastor, counselor, teacher, missionary, ministry leader or just a better-trained Christian.
