  • Summary

  • 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 series outlines a new vision, not the current reformist path, as the only future for theological education beyond this impasse.
