? those who wish to begin seminary studies on a trial basis to help them determine if they desire to pursue a degree program;*
? Christian workers with limited time available for seminary studies (those who intend to enter a professional ministry are encouraged to apply for admission to one of the master's-level degree programs);
? missionary candidates who anticipate service in nonprofessional ministries whose mission board requires graduate study in Bible and theology;
? college graduates who want a year of seminary studies as a supplement to their undergraduate work; and ?spouses of current DTS students who want to complete a program of graduate seminary studies.
* Students should contact the Advising Center as soon as they decide to pursue a degree.
Goals
All students in the CGS program will be able to:
? demonstrate a general knowledge of the Bible; ? evidence a general knowledge of premillennial theology and an ability to support their theological views; ? evidence an increasing likeness to Christ as manifested in love for God, love for others, and the fruit of the Spirit;
and ? evidence an interest and involvement in the local church or other ministries with which they are associated.
