hazelip school of theology
serve more effectively wherever you're called.
the landscape of ministry is changing as never before. at the hazelip school of theology, we care for the lifespan of ministers and train you for challenges faced at every stage of life whether today and in the future. we equip you with the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to empower your calling in the kingdom, whether that’s in local congregations, faith-based nonprofit spaces, chaplaincy roles or other forms of ministry you are supporting.
your degree is more than just an academic experience. it is also about the personal journey you take as you study the complexities of scripture, the textures of church history, the breadth of christian theology and the pastoral practices of personal and communal formation. here at hazelip, the classic theological disciplines are meaningfully connected to the practical concerns of how to sustain christian faith within your circles of influence.
our way of educating is holistic, flexible and easily accessible for all regardless of the program you choose, making it ideal for kingdom workers and professionals in various fields. we consider ourselves theological educators first and foremost, women and men that are willing to share our scholarly resources alongside our personal pieces of wisdom that flow out of our own journeys with christ. we are thus accessible outside the classroom for other kinds of formative conversations because we highly value the personal dimensions of a seminary experience.
