This is an incredibly exciting time of your life as you struggle with what seems to be a call to ministry. You are praying about it. You are studying the scriptures seeking God's will. You may have begun to share  your sense of call with Christian friends, your pastor, or family. What is the next step?

We have created special times just for those who are seeking to discern a call from God to the ministry. We call these scheduled events "Northern Exposures." At a Northern Exposure you will share stories with current students and staff and learn how to balance seminary education with home, work, family, and church. You will have the opportunity to visit a classroom and experience for yourself what a seminary education and the seminary experience entails. We encourage you to bring a family member or a good Christian friend/mentor.

Next Northern Exposure:

We are also able to schedule an individual campus visit on almost any day of the year. However, you may want to visit at a time when classes are in session. Our schedule includes day, afternoon. evening, and summer courses. Feel free to contact our office on-line or by phone to arrange a personalized campus visit.

We would enjoy having the opportunity to meet with you and introduce you to students and faculty. We believe God has a unique plan for your life. Experience has shown us that God will speak clearly to you as you gather information, visit campus and continue to pray about how you are going to serve Jesus Christ.
