Flipping the Script: I Get Interviewed About Theological Education and the Story of Wesley Biblical Seminary

On today’s episode of More to the Story, we do something a little different: a role reversal. Instead of hosting the conversation, I’m the one being interviewed!

I recently had the opportunity to join Thom and Sam Rainer on the Church Answers Podcast to talk about the innovative approach Wesley Biblical Seminary offers for accessible, live-online theological education. We also dove into the remarkable history of WBS, from near-closure to incredible growth, and what it means for faithful, orthodox theological training today.

If you’ve followed the podcast, you know I often discuss theological education from the host’s chair, responding to guests and exploring key issues in ministry formation. This time, I got to share the story directly, offer some reflections, and highlight how WBS is equipping church leaders.

Whether you’re considering seminary, already in ministry, or simply interested in the future of theological education, I think you’ll find this conversation insightful. It’s a chance to hear the “more to the story” behind WBS and why accessible, formation-focused education matters now more than ever.
