What’s Happening at Missio
We are in the midst of our Breakfast with Missio series. Missio President, Dr. Frank James helped to kickoff our series on September 1st with a discussion on “What Would Jesus Do?”. This morning fellowship has been a blessing. We invite you to join us and be a part of the fellowship.
Called to follow Jesus into the world
God calls us to join him as he builds his church – to take the gospel to the whole world, to serve the least and the lost, and to practice our faith in our communities. God longs for servant-leaders who are bold enough to proclaim the gospel not only with their voices but with their lives. We long to see God make all things new and see his kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.
Our story
What students are saying
“Counseling classes at Missio have helped us bring hope to those who are in this broken world.”
– Wendy Chou, MA in Counseling
A purpose bigger than us all
Being missional means we participate in God’s mission of hope, healing, restoration, and reconciliation.
Being missional means we believe in God’s narrative of timeless and transformative truths found in the Bible.
Being missional means we respond to God’s great purpose of working through ordinary individuals to make an extraordinary difference in our neighborhoods and around the world.
Therefore, Missio Seminary trains and equips leaders to be missionally-minded and to be better prepared to serve in God’s mission of redemption and restoration—his purpose that is bigger and beyond all of us—to follow Jesus into the world.
Theology for a messy world
We believe theology is applicable beyond the classroom and best realized when its truth is embodied in the context of people, places, and in the midst of the messiness of life and culture. Our biblical training is practical and contextual, preparing leaders to serve God in today’s fast-paced and ever changing world. Located in the heart of Philadelphia, we combine theology with practical ministry training to serve those in our city and around the world.
Unity in diversity
We don’t expect our professors and students to agree on everything. We encourage diversity, dialogue, and discovery. As a non-denominational school, we welcome students of diverse denominational, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds from around the globe. We believe that the mission of Christ is strengthened through those not afraid to ask questions and inquire beyond the status quo. There are no cookie-cutter students at Missio, only committed followers of Jesus, working to authentically follow Jesus into the world.
