• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

From its small beginnings with just three students in 1923 to its status today as the largest theological school in the Wesleyan tradition (and one of the largest theological schools in the world), Asbury Seminary serves under its motto of "The Whole Bible for the Whole World." Now, as part of Asbury's centennial celebration, J. Steven O'Malley explores its history in depth, showing how the seminary remains faithful to the mission for which it was founded. This important milestone is the perfect time for such a tribute.

O'Malley introduces each of the eight presidents in terms of the era from which he came and his own faith journey and call to ministry. The history begins with founder H. C. Morrison's vision of a theological school that would be loyal to the Bible while preparing Spirit-filled and sanctified preachers to go into all the world. The author traces the challenges and successes of each administration. Here you will find stories of all sorts of people-members of the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, students, friends, donors, and, especially, alumni who have been and are a part of the Asbury Seminary family worldwide. Their prayerful support and influence have been blessed by God to guide the seminary in faithfulness to its mission. The story of Asbury Seminary's first one hundred years is indeed framed by the motto of the centennial celebrations: "Thanking God for the Past, Trusting God for the Future."
