Top-notch Theological Education
“My time at Beeson was crucial for my growth as a disciple of Jesus and as a servant of the body of Christ.

“A top-notch theological education taught by women and men who are deeply committed to Christ and the church, and a thriving, supportive community of peers. I recommend Beeson every chance I get to those following the call!”

Dave Nelson (M.Div. '04)
senior acquisitions editor, Baker Academic; editor, Lutheran Forum

Beeson Divinity School stands ready to help prepare Lutherans for ordained ministry. Lutheran students can trust that they will be formed in the characteristic strengths of the Lutheran tradition while at the same time learning within a Protestant, interdenominational community.

Beeson Divinity is a residential seminary, offering in person and small classes for personal, formational education. Our curriculum, which is taught by our world-class faculty, is academically rigorous with a strong emphasis on biblical languages, history and doctrine, and spiritual formation. Worship of the Triune God is central to all that we do at Beeson Divinity School, with a strong commitment to our weekly worship services in Hodges Chapel. We’d love to hear from you and answer any of your questions.
