A Seminary for the times. Founded in 1812, as the Baptist Training Union by free and escaped enslaved persons, Wayland Baptist Theological Seminary has a heart for scriptural interpretation, scholarship, sacred music, skills, and specialized ministries. With a rich history of practical and professional preparation, Wayland continues to equip pastors, ministers, scholars, music ministers, musicians, global service apostles (missions’ workers), and church workers for a variety of ministries in the church, the academy, and the world. ​
​
Wayland Baptist Theological Seminary is like no other, balancing practical application and scholarship by prepared clergypersons and academicians, utilizing our pastor-prophet-priest, and professor-prophet-practitioner system for instruction and equipping. Wayland Baptist Theological Seminary is the choice for specialized ministry preparation, testing intellect against standards of excellence, and working from a historic Baptist perspective hermeneutically, in identity, ecclesiology and practice, historically, theologically, and in polity.
