Soooo

how much do you have saved?
you do realize that real life goes on even though you are in school?

how old?
Spouse work?
why would you want to study w Glenn Hinson?
what denomination?
See how this is like Calculus 3?
too many variables for us to know how to help you
why do you care what we think?
wouldn't family, friends or pastor be of much more assistance?
maybe you could go to Harvard? We have a recent visitor on the board that teaches there
he even studied under one of the top 3-5 Professors of the 20th century in Bruce Metzger. If true that must have been a great opportunity.
Maybe others will respond?
Soooo....
I'll respond to you in the same respect that you gave me.
My number of posts has nothing to do with this question unless you are saying 1-5 posts go to ______ 6-20 posts go to ________ and more than 20 posts go to ________
All schools have live zoom classes, so my location is not important. I can do it from anywhere in the world.
The end goal is to maintain my employment as a chaplain. My hospital system now requires everyone to either hold the MDiv or be enrolled to get it as of Jan 1.
My bachelors I had a 3.2, My Master of Theological Studies I had a 3.7, my Master of Public Administration I had a 3.41, and my Doctor of Ministry I had a 4.0. They will not count any education as MDiv equivalent (even though the BCCI did, and I am a board-certified chaplain).
Because my hospital tuition reimbursement means that I will not have to pay anything for these degrees, and my denomination will scholarship anything that is not covered.
Kids and spouse are not relevant to the seminary's character, reputation, and quality.
Obviously, life goes on during school. You do realize that a day is 24 hours, right? That's obvious, too.
Health insurance? What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?
No, no prior service.
My age is irrelevant, but I am not a "traditional" aged student.
Again with the kids....
Glen Hinson because I am interested in learning about African-American Theology, hermeneutics, interpretations, etc.
No, I do not see how a simple question of what you think of these schools is Calculus 3. I see how you are trying to twist it to make it that way, but no, it is not. It was a simple question that several others managed to reply to, but not you; no, this was too complicated for you, apparently.
And if I wanted to go to Harvard I would have listed that as an option, stay on point.
I really hope your tone and abrasive nature are only geared toward me, if not, God help anyone who has ever met you, especially your Church if you are a leader in one.
