Center for Anabaptist Studies at Evangelical Seminary
The vision for the Center for Anabaptist Studies is to equip and facilitate education and scholarship for Evangelical Seminary students, faculty, and staff, from a distinctly Anabaptist perspective. The Center will be a practical resource for the Anabaptist community and provide a bridge between the academy and local churches through seminars, workshops, and training that is consistent with Anabaptist practice and theology.
