Dmin in Homiletics

[Notthemama1984]

Where can one receive a Dmin in Homiletics? in my opinion Homiletics is the most practical of all pastoral duties so a Dmin in Homiletics should be offered somewhere.

You would think, wouldn't you? Not here.

 

[Notthemama1984]

I didn't see one at RTS or Westminster. PRTS doesn't have a Dmin program so they are out. I don't know of others.

My alma mater, SBTS, offers a DMin in Expository Preaching...

 

[N. Eshelman]

RPTS offers a DMin. It has two tracks: Pastoral Ministry and Pastoral Counseling.

The Pastoral Ministry track is very focused on homiletics.

RPTS: Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary

It's also relatively cheap: $11,000.

If/when/maybe/if I get the real world pastoral experience I would be very interested in looking into the Biblical Counseling D.Min. at RPTS. Dr. Scipione is an unbelievable Prof. Probably none better in his area of expertise.

Never heard of him. What is his area of expertise?

Biblical counseling

I believe he formerly taught at Westminster Seminary (CA); here is his faculty page at RPTS.

I also had Dr. Scipione at Puritan Seminary. He is a very good instructor.

 

[Backwoods Presbyterian]

He is a unbelievably great Prof. RPTS is establishing a Full-Time counseling institute that will be across the street from the Seminary. It will offer free Biblical Counseling to the neighborhood (which is around 85% African-American) and will place students in real world situations. I will definitely take advantage of the program when it comes fully online.
