Students and Alumni

Real stories from those who have been transformed by their journey at RTS.

"The [RTS MDiv] hybrid option meant that I can work full time and still be able to come and see people face to face it was important to me that it wasn't just fully online where I would never really get to meet the people that I'm going to be interacting with, but I'd have a chance to come here on campus and be with men... and honestly that makes me a better father makes and husband."

"The ThM program at RTS Orlando has been such a blessing, as it has afforded me the opportunity to continue developing as a pastor and theologian beyond the MDiv, to deepen relationships with professors who are not only top-tier scholars but also committed churchmen, and to build friendships with peers who will continue to challenge, bless, and provide accountability as we serve Christ and his people—whether in the academy or in the local church."
Samuel Brewer
RTS Orlando
"When I took my first class in China, I just fell in love with the school in terms of the professors, their knowledge of the subjects they were teaching, their love for the students, their willingness obviously to travel overseas, to take time out of their schedule and to come and to spend that time with us and to teach us... really just appreciated RTS and everything they offered in that preparation for ministry."

"I'm an occupational therapist and I treat infants and children with disabilities. One of the coolest things that I got to do while I was a student here was write a research paper about the image of God in persons with disabilities, as argued from scripture. And so that has influenced everything I do at work."

"The thing that got me interested in the Master of Theology degree is my time as an MDiv student here at RTS Orlando, especially the interaction that I had with the faculty. Learning from experts in the field who not only had rigorous scholarship, but a really keen sense of pastoral understanding."
