Dealing with trauma in theological education

Trauma is pervasive in society, and that includes theological schools. In the autumn issue of In Trust magazine, Dr. David Wang discusses how theological schools can see trauma and help students deal with it in their lives and their ministries.

Pathways Initiative themes emerge in Phase 2 projects

Several key themes have emerged in Lilly Endowment’s Pathways for Tomorrow Initiative. See some of the trends in projects here.

Chris Meinzer of ATS provides an insightful thought about the climate of many theological schools. Use this comment and the reflective questions to spur a conversation among leaders and board members at your school.

A season not of death but renewal

In Trust Center board member Kathryn Glover notes that autumn is often seen as a season of death, but in this touching and insightful devotional, she writes that “dormancy is not death.”

Former seminary and college president Dr. David Rowe, Ph.D., wants to help schools break the cycle and transform to make a more positive impact. In “Guiding Transformations” – three, hour-long webinars – he’ll help create frameworks to overcome the disruption in theological education and provide a pathway toward sustaining and advancing school missions.
