Here’s a Sneak Peak at the Line Up of @RTSCharlotte Summer Classes
Every summer and winter term, RTS Charlotte offers a slate of intensive week-long classes on a variety of subjects. These are designed to allow the student to knock-out a complete class in just a few days (although papers and exams are due later).
These sorts of classes are particularly popular for students who don’t live in Charlotte because they can come on campus for just a week and complete the lectures. It saves a ton of travel time.
This summer we have courses in Systematic Theology, Apologetics, Historical Theology, Campus Ministry, Preaching, New Testament and Biblical Counseling.
Here’s the line up:… Continue reading...
The @RTSCharlotte Women’s Bible Study is Back
From 2014 to 2016, I taught a weekly Bible study on the RTS campus for women in the Charlotte community. We studied the book of Romans over the course of two years.
It was so encouraging to see the enthusiastic response from these women who were eager to learn more about the message of Romans. All 42 sessions are available on HD video (along with handouts) on the RTS Charlotte website here.
After taking a year off, we are kicking off the study again this coming fall. This time we will be studying the book of Hebrews. This is a fantastic book for many reasons, but most of all … Continue reading...
Update on @RTSCharlotte Vision Banquet with Andrew Peterson and Michael Tarwater
Last night, RTS Charlotte put on its bi-annual vision banquet at the Quail Hollow Club here in Charlotte (the location of the 2017 PGA Championship). It was a beautiful venue overlooking one of the country’s finest golf courses.
We were blessed to hear from Michael Tarwater, recently retired CEO of Carolinas Medical Center, one of the largest hospital systems in the Southeast. The Tarwaters have been long-time friends of the seminary.
And our musical guest was Andrew Peterson, one of the most gifted Christian artists today. Andrew played a number of songs from his recent album The Burning Edge of Dawn and he was a delight to … Continue reading...

Where Are They Now? @RTSCharlotte Alumnus Blair Smith
As many of you know, last year our beloved Dr. Doug Kelly retired from RTS Charlotte after 33 years as a professor. He is now Professor of Theology Emeritus.
Upon his retirement many of us wondered who would replace Doug (and how that would even be possible!). In particular, we wondered whether this person could share Doug’s expertise in Trinitarian thought during the patristic period.
Our prayers were answered when we hired one of our own alumni (class of 2003), and former student of Dr. Kelly’s, Blair Smith.
Blair is now our new Assistant Professor of Systematic Theology. He is currently wrapping up his Ph.D. in Historical Theology (Patristics) … Continue reading...
