What do our students say about Northwind?
I stumbled upon Northwind through a combination of divine Providence and Instagram where I saw an advert for the Romantic Theology program guided by Dr. Michael Christensen. It was the summer of 2020 and the peak of the COVID lockdowns. Amidst the restlessness and anxiety of that time, Northwind gave me an outlet for my theological and imaginative yearnings and formed me to hone them into articulate and creative ends. I cannot be more grateful to God for leading me to Northwind to form me as both a disciple of Jesus and minister to others.

Northwind offers a new style of online learning: Guided Education
When most people think of seminary courses, they envision a professor standing at the front of a classroom, giving lectures and facilitating discussions. While this can be an effective method of teaching, it is not the only way. At Northwind Theological Seminary, courses are designed to be taken by individual students anywhere with wifi, at their own pace, on any device they choose.
Northwind's teaching philosophy is called Guided Education, which is based on Competency-Based Theological Education. Faculty-mentors vet resources, organize learning, and guide students through Video-Lecture Courses, Tutorial Courses, and Oxford-Style Courses, allowing students to learn in a way that works best for them.
