This is Exploring College Ministry

After ministering to college students for 8 years, I've spent the last 11 years trying to help push our whole field forward. This has all meant, among other things, a yearlong road trip, an e-book (Reaching the Campus Tribes), exploring 350+ campuses, consulting, writing, speaking, and more. I love any opportunity to serve college ministers or others who want to reach college students better.

Road Trip #9 turned out phenomenally! Here’s the run-down of the best things I learned from my seminary-themed trip. (Part 2 tomorrow; to see all the various posts from this trip, start here.) More potential profs than I thought. Do you wanna teach college ministry? In the courses I attended, …

course #4: being our best

Benson Hines January 16, 2009 academic courses / college ministers / seminaries trip -Jan '09 / theology for college ministryLeave a comment

The fourth course I got to observe was entitled, “The Collegiate Minister.” It’s being taught the second half of this week at Midwestern Seminary, 28 more hours of college ministry education on top of the 28 that made up “Developing an Effective Collegiate Ministry.” That’s quite a week of class …

The course I began attending last night at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary is entitled, “Developing an Effective Collegiate Ministry.” This is – believe it or not – one of two college ministry courses they’re cramming into this week. Basically their sched works out as something like 10 hours a day, …

course number two: asbury seminary

My second venue on this Seminary Road Trip is Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, KY. This course, the “Campus Ministry Seminar” facilitated by Dr. Chris Kiesling, is an annual opportunity to expose Asbury students to guest lecturers and special topics. Not all topics are directly “collegiate,” but they can certainly …

Here is one reason I liked those 9 hours of attending, teaching, and otherwise participating in Beeson’s Campus …

I feel like today went well. Thanks for any praying you were able to do! I had the chance before teaching to meet with the University Ministries staff of Samford University. It was a wonderful 2 hours. I love Q&A sessions, particularly because I feel like I get to share …

As I explore Collegiate Ministry grad courses this week and next, first up is a 2-week January Term course at Beeson Divinity School. Some key facts: Dr. Matt Kerlin, the professor, has an impressive history of ministering within all three college ministry branches: campus-based ministry, church-based ministry, and in spiritual …

on the road again (again)

Benson Hines January 1, 2009 academic courses / seminaries trip -Jan '09 / supporting college ministryLeave a comment

When I prepared to title this blog post, I realized I’d already used the cliché “On the Road Again” title a few months ago. In that case, I was heading to Catalyst on my first big road trip following the BIG road trip. I guess I take a lot of …
