Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

Top-notch faculty and staff that teach the Word of God faithfully, accurately and clearly. Beautiful campus. Great facilities.

This is a great seminary and has an affordable and fun experience for anyone who comes. The spurgon college program means that you can get your seminary degree and your undergraduate at the same place. Lots of friendly people here and the housing is decent. The adjourned forest(on property) is filled with wildlife and beautiful trees. At the mathena center you can visit games like basketball and volleyball. In the foyer there is a popular studying place, coffee shop, and a bookstore. There is an activity center where there is pool, foosball, and other such. There is a basketball court, running track and a weight room. Covid-19 restrictions have post-poned some events and activities, but everything is virtually the same.

MBTS is one of the top seminaries in the nation. The undergraduate program at Spurgeon is outstanding as well. Affordable, high-quality, doctrinally orthodox theological education for any one serious about ministry.

Dr Thor Madsen, your "professor of ethics" nearly ran over my wife speeding excessively through a narrow restaurant canopy as a shortcut to a bar parking lot. When I confronted him, he began laughing like a maniac for an incredibly awkward amount of time. Then apologized, saying he was frustrated at the moment. He fled the scene and West Des Moines Police later found his car abandoned down the street.

My experience deals with knowing it's graduates. My Father in particular was one and he was an awesome pastor. He led many to Christ and helped more than just a few become pastors by his good example.

This is a fantastic School, with a fantastic faculty, and a beautiful campus. This is my second year attending this school and I have loved it. If you are looking into southern Baptist seminaries to attend, be sure and check Midwestern out. God is doing great things here. For perspective students, look into the Timothy Track program. It will be worth your while.

Tom Wadsworth is a genius - it's a testament to MBTS that he received his PhD there.
