The Theology of Theological Education
Theological education in Australia is undergoing significant change. There is a plethora of new innovations and “market-driven” programs. What can be said about all these programs and innovations? It appears that there is very little reflection on the theology of theological education. The basis of our theology of theological education at Crossway College is the Great Commission. The enterprise of theological education is in fact a central aspect of the outworking of the commission that Jesus gave to the disciples in Matthew 28:18-20. In particular, the Great Commission provides the justification (why?), the content (what?), as well as the methodology (how?) of theological education.
