I want to thank this week’s sponsor, the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology at Mars Hill Graduate School. And just to clarify, Mars Hill Graduate School has no affiliation with the folks who produce the NOOMA videos at Mars Hill Bible Church in Grand Rapids…and (especially if you are familiar with Pomomusings) you’ll know that it has no affiliation AT ALL with Mark Driscoll and his Mars Hill Church in Seattle.
I had thought about attending MHGS for seminary before ultimately heading to Princeton instead. But I’ve heard so many great things about Mars Hill Grad School, it’s a place that I would definitely think much more seriously about if I were choosing a seminary today. At MHGS you’ll receive an education that not only engages your mind, but your soul as well. MHGS students are invited to be readers of text, soul and culture in a way that integrates real world context with theological and psychological content. As co-creators of the MHGS community, students pursue an authentic and embodied encounter with God that leads to a greater awareness of our neighbors – both local and global.
By joining rigorous training with humility, gratitude and joy, students participate in each other’s transformation. MHGS is preparing pastors and counselors, artists and practitioners through an education concerned not in having all the answers but in asking better questions.
MHGS offers 3 degree programs:
Applications are accepted through the month of July for fall of 2009. Learn more about becoming a student here.
Another way to see what MHGS faculty, students, and alumni are writing and thinking about is to visit experience.mhgs.edu and stay connected and journey together.

Hello PoMoMusings readers. I just want to testify to the goodness that is Mars Hill Graduate school. The students are eager and open minded, the staff if progressive and creative, and the location…well, what can I say? I adore the downtown Seattle waterfront.
It’s a young institution–like the little sister of Regent College in Vancouver BC.But make no mistake, Mars Hill Graduate School already has academic chops. Get in now on the ground-floor glory days.

I was excited to see this as one of your sponsored posts. I have to say that, as a new seattleite, finding out about MHGS has been an unexpected pleasure. I know two students there, and both have nothing but great things to say. It’s a heck of a lot different from your typical seminary, but I think many who’ve been through a typical seminary might say that’s a good thing.
Yea!! I love MHGS :-)
I’ve had the priveledge of sitting in on a few classes at MHGS and can honestly say I have never been more challenged and inspired in three hours than those visits. Great school.
I’m glad you clarified on that, cos as soon as I heard “Mars Hill” and “Seattle”, I was like “huh? like Mark Driscoll? on Pomomusings? whaaa…?”
Seems like a popular name these days :P
Thanks for the clarification that Mars Hill GS is not Driscollism.
From what I understand, Bakke is Driscollism?
