Southeastern Seminary highlights military

With more than 100 military community students, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary (SEBTS) is seeking to bring awareness to ministry opportunities within the military community.

In September, affiliated SEBTS military personnel and students gathered for panel discussions and various meetings for the seminary’s first Military Community Focus Week.

Mark Liederbach, SEBTS dean of students and vice president for student services, said discipling, training and caring for the military community is “strategic for long term global, gospel impact.”

Topics included church planting near military bases and strategies for ministering in that context. A panel discussion was held for students interested in chaplaincy ministry. (BP)
