Join Us for a @RTSCharlotte Class This Winter Term
Every winter term (basically the month of January), the Charlotte campus offers a great line-up of one-week intensive classes.
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...
Here are Some Great Videos on the Five Solas from the Faculty of Reformed Theological Seminary
Last month RTS Charlotte and Christ Covenant Church came together to host a Reformation conference entitled, The Gospel of Grace and Glory: The Reformation at 500 and Counting.
The five plenary sessions of this conference were on the five solas of the Reformation: Kevin DeYoung (Sola Fide), James Anderson (Sola Gratia), Blair Smith (Solus Christus), Derek Thomas (Soli Deo Gloria), and myself (Sola Scriptura).
I might add that all these speakers (except myself!) are Systematic Theology profs at Reformed Theological Seminary.
And Keith and Kristyn Getty capped off the weekend with a concert that Sunday night.
Over the years … Continue reading...
Here’s What Christians Should Be Busy Protesting
There’s a lot of protesting going on in our culture today. Seems like everyone is upset about something. And they are quite willing to let the world know about it. Indeed, even in the evangelical Christian world, it seems like protesting has become the thing to do.
The key question, however, will always be, “Against what things should Christians offer a protest?”
I suppose there are many answers to that question. But, as we near the 500th anniversary of Luther’s nailing of the 95 theses to the Wittenberg door (Oct 31st), we should at least consider what the Reformers were busy protesting.
After all, that is what the Reformers were. … Continue reading...
The @RTSCharlotte Women’s Bible Study Has Started Again!
As many of you know, from 2014 to 2016 I led a women’s Bible study on the RTS Charlotte campus on the book of Romans–42 installments in all. The HD videos of the study (with handouts) are available here.
We continue to be encouraged to hear that the videos are being watched by folks all over the country and the world. Just a short time ago, I received an email from a group in Slovakia that is working their way through the Romans study.
The idea for this study was born out of a desire to connect with the people in the city of Charlotte outside the formal classroom … Continue reading...
Where Are They Now? @RTSCharlotte Alumnus Michael Knight
One of the things that makes the RTS Charlotte campus distinctive is the number of missionaries we have sent out over the years. For whatever providential reasons, God has allowed the Charlotte campus to be a fruitful training ground for folks headed to the mission field.
This missions “vibe” in Charlotte simply reflects the overall ethos we are shooting for here. We not only want our seminary to be theologically solid, but also outwardly focused and passionate about fulfilling the Great Commission.
Right now, Charlotte alums serve in countries such as Peru, Mexico, Panama, Colombia, France, England, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Czech Republic, China, Japan, Korea, Indonesia, Morocco, Ghana, South Africa, … Continue reading...
