If you are considering working on a masters degree in the areas of theology, missiology, or psychology I’d like to encourage you to consider Fuller Theological Seminary. I graduated back in 2006 and have been an avid evangelist for the school ever since.
Aside from having a world class faculty, Fuller is one of the most ethnically and racially diverse seminaries in the world which adds a ton to the processes of learning and formation. And let’s face it, you can’t beat the weather in So. Cal!
More than all this, the alumni of Fuller just received an email from the admissions department letting us know that they have received a hefty donation and are offering more scholarships than usual to incoming students. So the timing is perfect.
If you are interested in going to seminary, but love the idea of a more integrated approach to education where you are studying while you’re engaged in a specific area of Christian leadership, you really need to check out the Master of Arts in Global Leadership program. In my opinion, this is one of the best programs being offered in the entire landscape of graduate theology/missiology.
If you are looking for any more guidance, have any questions, or would like me to help connect you with some people who might be valuable to the ends you have in mind for seminary, just let me know.
Oh, make sure you take something with Mark Lau Branson

1Applied to MAGL for fall. Still not heard anything. Would be interested in scholarships and grants. Have completed financial aid stuff. ust waiting to get accepted in program. Is 47 years old too old to MAGL? Have been a pastor 25 years, is it too late?

2you are such a homer for Fuller.
on my side, I will say, “Don’t go to trinity evangelical divinity school” unless you are planning on getting a ph.d or something worthless like that. Go to Northern Seminary instead!

3@Greg – Hope stuff with the MAGL works out. Not sure how the scholarship money will flow out through the school and degree programs. The MAGL has always been a bit of bit of its own animal – granting scholarships when they are able, but mainly to non-Western, under-resources students. You sound like an ideal candidate for the MAGL program!
@Geoff – whatever a homer is, you’re probably right!
