Regent University School of Divinity

Regent University School of Divinity The School of Divinity serves students from many church traditions and backgrounds.

The Regent School of Divinity exists for the glory of God by providing education that seeks to be faithful to the Scriptures and emphasizes the renewing work of the Holy Spirit in order to train laborers who bear witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ. We desire to equip students to minister effectively within their own church traditions and various spheres of influence. In particular, we seek to s

erve students and churches within the spiritual renewal movement. As an educational and faith community we assume that students are active in ministry. Correspondingly, we seek to encourage their growth in: spiritual formation, theological and biblical integrity, the fruit and gifts of the Holy Spirit, and commitment to the Church and its outward thrust in evangelism and missions.
