Thrilled to welcome our largest class in more than two decades! 150 students, ready to claim God’s intention for their lives. So beautiful to watch our orientation facilitators knit residential, hybrid, and remote learners into one community, honoring everyone’s unique gifts and journey. God lives wherever people live and love abundantly, laboring for healing and wholeness. Across this sea of students—who represent so many different contexts, countries, and calls—the Spirit is moving. And we can’t wait to see what comes next.

"Without the possibility of remote study, I would have needed to postpone my theological education entirely. Instead, Garrett’s remote learning structure made it possible for me to begin my studies without delay, allowing me to start engaging with coursework, professors, and fellow students while remaining in India." Garrett now offers a fully-remote option for multiple degree programs, including the MDiv!
