Online Theological Study

{Online Education} Lancaster Theological Seminary and The Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia announce their collaboration in offering introductory courses in Christian theology and history online in Fall 2011. Incorporating emerging technologies, each offering is designed to introduce the participant to theological study while providing flexibility that does not require moving to or commuting to a seminary's campus.

These courses provide a foundation should the participant desire to continue in a Master of Divinity or Master of Arts in Religion degree program on either campus. Whether applied to a degree or as part of one’s life long learning plans, our Distant Learning Program will take you deeper into the study of Christianity.

Together, the two seminaries will be offering more courses than a individual seminary with 10 foundational courses in theology being developed. Whether seeking to pursue Christian theological studies in the future, or simply enhancing and expanding one’s knowledge, the participant will delve deeper into the study of Christianity through an online experience that includes: one-on-one instructor connection, video lectures, forum discussions, collaborative projects, and relevant media content.
