Lexington Theological Seminary

ABOUT LEXINGTON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY 

Lexington Theological Seminary (LTS), founded in 1865, as the first seminary of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), is an accredited graduate theological institution engaged in preparing men and women for congregational ministry.  Consistent with the Disciples’ historic commitment to Christian unity, the seminary is intentionally ecumenical in its world view, its programs, and the composition of the student body, faculty, staff, trustees, and partner organizations.   

Our mission is to prepare faithful leaders for the church of Jesus Christ, and, thus, to strengthen the church’s participation in God’s mission for the world.  We are a historic seminary built for today’s pastors, church leaders and theologians.  The creativity, imagination, and courage of the seminary’s faculty allowed us to transform the educational model for clergy preparation to integrate the congregation as a full partner in the preparation of pastors for leadership in the church.   We were the first seminary to offer our unique online and hybrid programming providing the flexibility needed by today’s theological students.  

We provide our students with a holistic, relevant approach to pastoral development. LTS values teaching, scholarship and service that supports and uplifts churches, congregations and communities.  Rooted in the local congregation, our educational programming is primarily hands-on, while our online model of theological seminary education makes it possible to answer God’s calling for your life no matter where you live and work.
