Fuller-VERY liberal, but very well-known and prestigious Harvard-VERY liberal, kind of the joke of seminaries, though. Probably because my friends tend to be on the more conservative side, but Harvard is known for producing Biblical "scholars" that get off track from the Bible's basic principles Duke-Moderately liberal, starting to go more conservative. A very good seminary, more scholar-based than producing great ministers (sounds like what you'd want, though) Emory-Moderately liberal. Great seminary, but sometimes gets attacked by evangelical ministers about allowing too much freedom of thought. In other words, they let in non-Christians who want to go to seminary to debate the Word instead of learning more about it. Has some of the best professors in the US. Fred Craddock being the main one. Reformed Theological Seminary-Conservative (duh, reformed). Probably produces more ministers than scholars, honestly. I have one friend who went there, but I'm not very sure about the reputation, etc... Gordon-Conwell (where most of my friends go or went)-Moderate to conservative. Everyone who I know who has gone there has NOT gone into ministry. One is a Christian counselor, one teaches Bible at a church (he is a genius in Bible, I swear), one is doing some Bible studies, but not really in ministry and doesn't want to do ministry, one leads the largest young adult ministry in Charlotte, and one does the finances for one of the largest churches in Charlotte. |
Chicago has several really good theological seminaries and only one (Chicago Theological Seminary - United Church of Christ) was listed so far.
There is also: North Park Theological Seminary - Chicago (Evangelical Covenant Church) Garrett " " -Evanston (United Methodist Church) Seabury " " -Evanston (Episcopal) The last two are on Northwestern's campus. A former pastor of ours and a good friend got her master's & PH.D in Theology/Divinity from Garrett. My husband expects to start a Master's in Divinity shortly, so I'm pretty up on the research on area programs. :) |
