Westminster Theological Seminary

History

The great theologians of Princeton Seminary championed Reformed Christian scholarship during the early 20th century. Internationally renowned, the faculty included the insightful biblical interpreter Geerhardus Vos, the steadfast defender of biblical inerrancy B.B. Warfield, and the esteemed New Testament scholar J. Gresham Machen.

Education

The MAR degree is intended for students who do not plan on going into pastoral ministry but are pursuing an academic career. While the MDiv is no less academic than the MAR, the MAR does not require practical theology courses.
