Beskrivning
Traditional patterns of educating and training clergy face not only crises of increasing cost and declining enrollment, but also a crisis of identity, since at present it is the academy, not the church, that shapes formation for ministry. This collection of essays outlines a history and a new vision of the church as the primary location of ministerial formation for the future of theological education.

Recensioner i media

As a professor at a traditional, residential, denominational seminary where almost all of the students attend full-time and are preparing for extended careers in ordained ministry, I read this provocative and counter-cultural volume with considerable interest. Whether you agree with their various arguments or not, the authors' unsparing analysis of the multiple challenges—pedagogical, ecclesial, social, financial, historical, intellectual, ecological, and even moral—now confronting such seminaries and the denominations they serve is required reading for all those engaged in contemporary theological education.
