Join Us for a @RTSCharlotte Class This Winter Term

These are classes where the lectures can be taken all in one week (with the assignments due later). This allow students to travel from a distance to take a course.
The graphic below lays out all the classes we are offering. There’s still time to catch Bob Cara’s Acts-Romans class that starts on Monday!
Let me also draw attention to the fact that Ed Welch of CCEF will be joining us Jan 30-Feb 2 for Advanced Methods in Biblical Counseling. As is well known, CCEF has been a core influence … Continue reading...

Faculty Opening for Professor of Counseling at RTS Charlotte
Over the last thirteen years as a professor at RTS Charlotte, I have had the opportunity to talk to each graduating class about what they see as our strengths and weaknesses as a campus. The strengths I regularly hear are as follows: top-notch faculty, wonderful campus community, a great location, professors who are also pastors, a robust commitment to Reformed theology, a passion for proclaiming the gospel to the nations, etc.
But, there are also places we need to improve. And time and again, our graduates have offered the same suggestion: we need more biblical counseling. As our students have become pastors, they realize that they needed better … Continue reading...
