  2. I just sent my final application for the Doctor of Theology Program but realized that I should have applied for the Bachelors program. How do I go about correcting this mistake? Your response will be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I am a seminary professor teaching distance learning classes in church finance and administration. I’m interested in offering my class at the Trinity School of Apologetics & Theology. Can you give me direction on how to proceed? Blessings.

    I have applied initially for study for a Doctor of Religious Education. I am a retired attorney and noticed your background along with US location. I worship with the Pleasant Street Baptist Church, Worcester MA and host men’s weekly fellowship studies at my home. I also have a ministry “Gospel Liberty Services” which is listed since 1984 with the Directory of the Ministry, Christian Churches and Churches of Christ”. Although I have several accredited law degrees, I also studied with the North Tennessee Bible Institute and Seminary, Clarksville, TN which was founded in my home church approximately 35 plus years ago. There I have an earned MRE and honorary LLD (I served as counsel, Professor (Biblical Peacemaking) and administrative (VP for Academics and External) and in other roles altho since our founder died last year, the school seems to be struggling and most of my group continued in other ministries. It was our goal to offer the lowest cost Christian education and many of us believed that the study of the Bible should be widely opened to all who are qualified without excess financial obligations. It is the responsibility of the Christian to spread the word throughout the world. I have long desired to host a cohort/ study group for the inner city to teach those who desire to spread Christ’s word and ministry to have an opportunity for some structured program that legitimately offers quality Christian education. It seems that Trinity might serve that purpose. However, most of those whom I target barely survive financially but do significant services to downtown ministries. Having been involved with NTBIS for many years, do you believe that we might be approved to be a cohort group affiliated with Trinity and could offer a nominal registration fee? I believe that such would be in the spirit of Christ. As a sidenote, I was the last Corporate Secretary (and on the Board of Directors)for what was referred to as the World Board of United Church of Christ before it merged with the Disciples of Christ to its Global missions outreach. We were the oldest missionary society/ group in the US and sent the first boat of missionaries to India (Congregational but who converted to Baptist while sailing across the ocean). I find it amusing to be now considering a crossback mission effort from India to the US. India does offer liberal education laws for religious institutions and also does not have the heavy overload that American religious seminaries carry. If you could call me at 508-752-4006, I would appreciate it. Jim Savage

    I wanted to ask a question about accreditation. The most acceptable accreditation in the United States is ATS. however this is not listed anywhere on your site. Would you be able to give me a short overview of the accreditation situation and why or why not you have chosen to go one way over another?
