Anderson University School of Theology is the only seminary of the Church of God in the world and is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools. We are a seminary that serves the church universal from our distinctive perspective as a Church of God seminary in the Wesleyan tradition, committed to training women and men for ministry, and seeking to develop biblically grounded practice of ministry in church and society.
A Global Education
By integrating the concept of Christian service into all of our instruction, graduates learn how to care for both the physical and spiritual needs of their patients. Basing our nursing practice on biblical principles, students learn how to minister to dying patients, resolve current moral issues faced by the healthcare team, and address the needs of the uninsured while learning what it means to be a Christian servant.
Part of this is experienced through global education—an important component of the BSN curriculum. We require an intercultural experience that gives students the opportunity to travel overseas at a reduced rate and provide nursing care to the citizens of various communities.
