Gordon Theological Now Offering Full Scholarships

The following was submitted by Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary:

is now offering a full-tuition scholarship program to incoming students. A revamped version of the school’s Partnership Program, this scholarship is designed to provide students with a high-quality theological education while relieving the burden of educational debt.

Through the Partnership Program, students bring to seminary a network of friends, family and a sending church who provide prayer and financial support as they prepare academically and spiritually for future Christian service. The program emphasizes practical training in fundraising and biblical stewardship as well as focusing on discipleship as a part of students’ curriculum.

Originally started in 2004, the Partnership Program was designed partially in response to two Lilly Endowment studies, The Reluctant Steward and The Reluctant Steward Revisited. These reports researched the difficulty ministers have discussing money and stewardship with their congregations. Through Gordon-Conwell’s program, students graduate with the tools needed to practice biblical stewardship personally, as well as teach it to their churches and ministries.
