Parepidemos
Puritan Board Freshman
Hey friends,
I am a member of an OPC on the west coast and have been working through an internal call to ministry for some time. I am married with kids and I am not in a position to you at this time.
Question for you all: Any recent insight on the RTS Masters of Arts in Biblical Studies (MABS) program (distance through their global department)? It appears that it is 65 or so of the 80 credits of the RTS mdiv. Have seen some threads from 6-10 years ago, but nothing recent. Anyone getting ordained with this degree?
My session seems to be on board with this program given my previous education/experience and they could supplement my education since we have many seminary trained men connected to me (really thankful for my mentors). Our plan is to have me come under care next year when I’m enrolled in classes. My goal is to be a minister in the OPC.
Anyways, any recent insight into RTS and distance learning from those in the OPC (or other Presbyterian denoms), I'd like to connect with you. Thanks.
In Christ alone.
