Course Offerings 2019–2020 Course Offerings 2019–2020 A SEMINARY BEYOND WALLS JOIN US ON THE FRONTIER …OF THEOLOGICAL EDUCATION In 1824 and 1858 our founding Bishops, Philander Chase and Henry Benjamin Whipple, established Bexley Hall and Seabury seminaries on what was then the North American frontier. Bexley Seabury Seminary, the heir of their legacy, continues to stand on the frontier of theological education, offering accessible, affordable, and academically rich theological education on campus, online, and in local contexts. Grounded in the Anglican/Episcopal tradition but open to all who are journeying in the Christian faith, our mission is to equip lay and ordained leaders, lifelong learners, and theological degree-seekers for bold inquiry in service of the Gospel and active engagement in contemporary congregational and community life. We are all teachers and all learners—whether we are lay or clergy persons, faculty members, or students. We value each person’s experience and point of view, and cherish the growth that comes from embracing diversity. COURSES to MEET YOUR INTERESTS AND FURTHER YOUR GOALS Bexley Seabury courses are not for seminarians only. With few exceptions, our courses are open to anyone who wants to enhance their ministry skills, expand their theological understanding, or deepen their spiritual lives. Courses can be taken for academic credit, continuing education units (CEUs), or for personal enrichment (audit/no credit). All courses are taught at the graduate level. ONLINE, ON-CAMPUS, and BLENDED COURSES to FIT YOUR SCHEDULE Bexley Seabury’s non-residential model of theological education enables us to offer courses in a variety of formats that enable students to remain in their local contexts and to study at a pace that fits their professional and personal responsibilities. We offer courses in the following formats: Intensives are held on campus for either three Friday/Saturday weekends in Fall and Spring; or week-long in January and Summer. Students typically have assignments and stay connected online, before, after or in-between sessions on campus. Hybrids blend online teaching and learning (synchronous real-time sessions, asynchronous sessions on your own time, or both) with sessions that meet on campus for one or two weekends in Fall and Spring or fewer than five weekdays in January and Summer. Fully online courses do not require visits to campus. Three-credit courses usually last for the duration of a semester or term. They often include both synchronous ("live" in real time) and asynchronous (on your own time) sessions. CONTEXTUALIZED COURSES for TODAY’S WORLD Bexley Seabury is committed to preparing church leaders for lay and ordained ministry in the real world. We emphasize in every course what you learn applies to your particular ministry or community service setting. TUITION and FEES Tuition for 2019–2020 is $650 per credit ($1950 per three-credit course) when taken for academic credit; $523 per three-credit course for continuing education units (CEUs); $498 per three-credit course for enrichment (audit/no credit). A technology fee of $30 per credit applies for courses taken for academic credit only. Some one- and two-credit courses are available at proportionately reduced cost. SCHOLARSHIPS AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE Bexley Seabury is committed to making theological education available to all degree- and non-degree-seeking students. To those who have demonstrated financial need, we offer tuition assistance the fullest extent possible. Additionally, MDiv students from under-represented communities may be eligible for certain scholarships offered by the seminary and/or The Episcopal Church. Federal Student Loans are also available to qualified students. Contact Lisa Gee for more information [email protected]. DEGREE AND DIPLOMA PROGRAMS Master of Divinity: Our enriched, non-residential Master of Divinity program (81 credits) offers robust preparation in the biblical, theological, historical, and practical disciplines, studied from both ecumenical and specifically Anglican/Episcopal perspectives. Students may take courses full- or part-time, while staying connected to the learning community for the duration by participating in our highly contextualized, no-cost, formation program. Doctor of Ministry in Congregational Development: Our widely respected DMin in Congregational Development (28 course credits plus thesis) blends theological reflection with analytic and pragmatic skills to develop transformational leaders. Curriculum components include systems theory, cultural diversity, community organizing, and asset-based community development with a focus on student’s local ministry contexts. One-week DMin intensives run in January and Summer with cohort group support throughout. Doctor of Ministry in Preaching: This ecumenical program is offered in conjunction with five partner schools in the Association of Chicago Theological Schools (ACTS). It includes three intensive summer sessions and work in your ministry setting during the year and a thesis. Diploma in Anglican Studies: This 28-credit diploma offers a deep dive into the history, theology, liturgy, spirituality, and ethos of the Anglican/Episcopal tradition.

  • A Short History of ECMN the Last Three Bishops of the Episcopal
    A Short History of ECMN The history of the ECMN begins in the early 1800’s in the wilderness and is tied to the Dakota and Ojibwe nations. Our first bishop, The Rt. Rev. Henry B. Whipple, had a 42 year-tenure and was known as a strong advocate for indigenous peoples through conflicted and troubled times. Minnesota became a state in 1858, and we have since had eight bishops and changed our name from the Diocese of Minnesota to t he Episcopal Church in Minnesota (ECMN) to signify a new identity as a network of faith communities. In the mid-to-late 1800s, three schools, including a seminary, were founded, as was the Sheltering Arms Foundation for homeless children. We ordained our first woman priest in 1974. To better serve remote areas, a lay-clergy Team Ministry model was adopted in the 1940s and continues today in urban areas as well. Our history includes multiple forms of outreach, including support for youth through camps, retreats, and mission trips. For more go to https://episcopalmn.org/a-brief-history-of-ecmn. The Last Three Bishops of the Episcopal Church in Minnesota Robert Marshall Anderson was consecrated the seventh bishop of Minnesota in 1978 and served until 1993. Among his many accomplishments, the Episcopal House of Prayer was designed and built at the invitation of the Benedictine Monks from St. John’s University on the University campus in Collegeville, Minnesota. This spirit-filled facility for meetings and spiritual retreats is still in use today. At the time of his death in 2011, then-Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori said of Bishop Anderson that he “was a leader in developing effective responses to sexual misconduct," and "was a tireless advocate for Native Americans throughout his ministry.” James Louis Jelinek was consecrated the eighth Bishop of Minnesota in 1993 at the Abbey Church at St.

  • Politics of Abolition: Salmon P. Chase in Cincinnati by William E
    As early as 1836, Salmon P. Chase joined the battle to abolish slavery. His beliefs propelled him into national politics, although more than two decades passed before the mood of the nation was receptive to the ideals he expressed in his early years in Cincinnati. The Politics of Abolition: Salmon P. Chase in Cincinnati by William E. Baringer n November, i860, Abraham Lincoln had just been elected President. The I first winner of the new Republican party, Lincoln was so little known that the nation felt an overpowering curiosity about what sort of man he was. The New York Herald and other Democratic newspapers made a "contribution" to the public's knowledge by printing a speech allegedly delivered by Lincoln to a Negro audience in Cincinnati in 1845. The speaker claimed that black Ameri- cans were the natural equals of whites, denounced as undemocratic the laws and customs that denied them equality, and received an engraved silver pitcher saluting his services to the race. Among those who read this radical oration was a Democratic legislator from Mississippi, William C. Smedes of Vicksburg. In an angry letter to Henry Jarvis Raymond of New York, Republican national chairman, Smedes declared that the holder of such views should be struck dead by lightning as "a just punishment from an offended diety." Raymond forwarded this missive to Lincoln, who repudiated the speech as "a forgery out and out.... I was never in a meeting of Negroes in my life; and never saw a pitcher presented by anybody to anybody."' The actual speaker and recipient of the pitcher on that occasion was not Lincoln but a Cincinnati attorney named Salmon Portland Chase.

  • Cathedral Building in America: a Missionary Cathedral in Utah by the Very Reverend Gary Kriss, D.D
    Cathedral Building in America: A Missionary Cathedral in Utah By the Very Reverend Gary Kriss, D.D. I “THERE IS NO fixed type yet of the American cathedral.”1 Bishop Daniel S. Tuttle’s comment in 1906 remains true today as an assessment of the progress of the cathedral movement in the Episcopal Church. In organization, mission, and architecture, American cathedrals represent a kaleidoscope of styles quite unlike the settled cathedral system which is found in England. It may fairly be said that, in the development of the Episcopal Church, cathedrals were an afterthought. The first cathedrals appear on the scene in the early 1860s, more than two hundred fifty years after Anglicans established their first parish on American soil. So far removed from the experience of English cathedral life, it is remarkable that cathedrals emerged at all—unless it might be suggested that by the very nature of episcopacy, cathedrals are integral to it. “I think no Episcopate complete that has not a center, the cathedral, as well as a circumference, the Diocese.”2 The year was 1869. William Croswell Doane, first Bishop of Albany, New York, was setting forth his vision for his Diocese. Just two years earlier, Bishop Tuttle had set out from his parish in Morris, New York, (which, coincidentally, was in that section of New York State which became part of the new Diocese of Albany in 1868) to begin his work as Missionary Bishop of Montana with Idaho and Utah. In 1869, Bishop Tuttle established his permanent home in Salt Lake City, and within two years, quite without any conscious purpose or design on his part, he had a cathedral.

Minnesota Bounties On Dakota Men During The .SU .-Dakota War Abstract The .SU .-Dakota War was one of the formative events in Minnesota history, and despite the passage of time, it still stirs up powerful emotions among descendants of the Dakota and white settlers who experienced this tragedy. Hundreds of people lost their lives in just over a month of fighting in 1862. By the time the year was over, thirty-eight Dakota men had been hanged in the largest mass execution in United States history. Not long afterwards, the United States abrogated its treaties with the Dakota, confiscated their reservations along the Minnesota River, and forced most of the Dakota to remove westward. While dozens of books and articles have been written about these events, scholars have largely ignored an important legal development that occurred in Minnesota during the following summer. The inneM sota Adjutant General, at the direction of Minnesota Governors Alexander Ramsey and Henry Swift, issued a series of orders offering rewards for the killing of Dakota men found within the State.
