Wesley Biblical Seminary Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

Wesley Biblical Seminary is a multi-denominational, graduate school of theology within the evangelical, Wesleyan-Arminian tradition. The mission of the seminary is to provide graduate-level, theological education for persons preparing for Christian service and to promote an understanding of and renewal in the Wesleyan-Arminian tradition. The founding of Wesley Biblical Seminary grew out of the need for adequately prepared pastors within the Methodist tradition in the Deep South. Howard, the founding president, a group of interested persons representing historic Methodism participated in the establishment of a theological seminary committed to graduate-level educational ministry in the Deep South. On July 22, 1975, Wesley Biblical Seminary was incorporated as an independent, non-profit educational institution with its charter, bylaws, and statement of faith duly adopted at the first Board of Trustees meeting on September 20, 1975. Dr. Fuhrman served the seminary as president for eight years and returned to full-time teaching in 1985. Smith received a unanimous election to serve as the fifth president of the seminary in January, 1998, and moved into the office on July 1, 1998.
