If you live a committed Christian life but never share the gospel verbally, then how does your non-Christian neighbor know the source of your hope? And conversely, if you communicate the gospel verbally but are a complete jerk in the process, then those words of eternal life may well fall on deaf ears.
Our vision for the only graduate school allowed to bear the name of Billy Graham is to produce graduates who exemplify the humble courage of steady work.
In establishing the Billy Graham School of Missions, Evangelism, and Church Growth in 1994, Mohler was able to raise a banner that marked The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary as a school that was committed not only to inerrancy, scriptural fidelity, and historic Southern Baptist doctrinal convictions but also to strengthening Southern Baptist commitment to evangelism and missions.
Our mission statement prioritizes what Jesus prioritized. Our focus is God’s Word, God’s mission, and God’s church.
I will be forever indebted to Dr. Graham for the fact that he gave so generously of his time to come to Louisville, and to give his enthusiastic support to what we were seeking to do right here on this campus.
As we commemorate three decades of the faithfulness of The Billy Graham School of Missions, Evangelism, and Ministry, we do so with eager anticipation for the future.
