Seminary Dean – Steve Hankins

Welcome

God favors men who learn to accurately explain and proclaim the Word of God. He delights in servants whose method in proclamation is clear, interesting and life-related, showing the lost world and the church what He desires of them in response–faith and obedience. At Bob Jones University Seminary we focus on training men to preach the Word since this is central to shepherding people for the glory of God in any ministry context.

But even more important, our focus at the Seminary is on developing the right kind of men to do the preaching that God commands. Men of knowledge, compassion, integrity and courage provide just the sort of example the people of God need to grow in the image of Christ. Since setting a right example is the essence of true spiritual leadership, we strive to prepare men who are well-developed models of the Truth. Our aim is to prepare men who will effectively teach others by what they say and the way they live.
