PITTSBURGH THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
ABOUT THE SEMINARY
Since 1794 Pittsburgh Theological Seminary has been
preparing students in the way of Jesus. We welcome
neighbors; share meals, differences, and experiences; expand
our minds; and expect to be challenged by the broad range
of beliefs we bring to the table.
Participating in God’s ongoing mission in the world,
Pittsburgh Theological Seminary is a community of Christ
joining in the Spirit’s work of forming and equipping people
for ministries familiar and yet to unfold and communities
present and yet to be gathered.
