APPLY FOR CHURCH PLANTING FELLOWSHIP
CHECK OUT ASBURY THE LASTEST OF ASBURY SEMINARY VOICES: A COLLECTION OF ALUMNI, STUDENT AND FACULTY STORIES DESIGNED TO GLORIFY GOD AND INSPIRE YOU!
Learning that lasts starts on “the edge of your own incompetence.” Dr. Ellen Marmon, Professor of Christian Discipleship, learned that phrase from her mentor while she completed her Ph.D. at the University of Kentucky. Now as the director of Asbury Seminary’s Doctor of Ministry Program, she weaves that philosophy into the D.Min. experience. The three-year applied doctoral degree program creates opportunities for participants to develop the humble posture of learner and embrace a season of intentional academic and spiritual formation.
“Discipleship is more than what you memorize, and we’re not just brains on a stick,” she said, referencing author James Smith.
