Seminary Without Walls

Mission Statement: A practical seminary designed to serve churches throughout the Treasure Valley to equip, enhance and encourage lay people to deeper involvement in church leadership.

Seminary Without Walls serves the church at large by training lay people for stronger and more in-depth leadership roles in the church. There are three tracts in the program: academic, practical and spiritual. Since Seminary Without Walls serves the mission of the church and not a particular denomination, these courses are taught from the perspective of the historic creeds of the church.
