What are people saying?

“I am very excited about this initiative. Any area of collaboration will only serve to strengthen and empower both parties.”

Elie Haddad, President, Arab Baptist Theological Seminary, Lebanon.

“TWB has a potential to contribute to the next wave of theological education globally.”

Dr Emmanuel Bellon, Scholar Leaders International.

“Neither theology or the gospel belongs to a single culture, but to all. Theologians Without Borders facilitates both the intercultural conversation and global partnership in theological education that has always been implicit in Christian mission. As one who both received and sends doctoral students to and from the Majority World, I am delighted to be involved in this pedagogical border-crossing. The gospel demands nothing less.”

Dr Kevin J Vanhoozer, Research Professor of Systematic Theology, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, IL, USA.
