Tozer Theological Seminary Established in October 2007, the seminary bears the name of A.W. Tozer (1897-1963) and is part of Simpson University . The seminary originally began in 1977 in San Francisco as the Graduate School of Ministry at Simpson College. A.W. Tozer Theological Seminary is for people who long to know God personally and have resolved to learn better how to mine for the treasures of God’s self-revelation in Scripture, in the church’s shared thinking about God’s Word, in creation, and worship and prayer. The focus at A.W. Tozer Theological Seminary is to teach students, to love students, to help students, and to pray for students as they become graduates who go into the world as disciple-making witnesses of Christ, giving to others from the treasures of Christ, all to the glory of God. A.W. Tozer Theological Seminary Locations Our primary campus is located in Redding, CA. We also have AWT Learning Centers in Columbia, MO, and Woodland, CA. It’s about calling, character, and competence Our faculty and staff are committed to helping our seminarians grow multi-dimensionally: in their calling as Christ followers; in character filled with grace and the Spirit; in competence and capacity to serve; and in confidence to think, speak, and act Christianly. It’s for men and women in ministry who want to finish seminary Tozer is especially designed for men and women who are serving in ministry settings but have not yet finished their theological training. Our educational format is designed to allow you to stay in your ministry setting while finishing your education. It’s led by practitioner-teacher-scholar faculty Our faculty members are adjunct by design. The men and women who teach our courses are practitioners in ministry; they are appropriately trained and credentialed to teach graduate level education; and are scholars in the context of being godly disciples! It’s about an opportunity for a tailored approach While we seek to provide a comprehensive education based on our learning outcomes, we are sensitive to individual needs, gifts, and skills. We will work hard to hear your story and help you tailor your education to meet your felt needs and opportunities. For some, it may take the form of stackable education” in that the seminarian needs coursework for licensure. Then after completing licensure or ordination, the individual returns to the seminary to complete a degree.

Every faculty member at A.W. Tozer Theological Seminary is expected to live as a disciple-making role model for students. At Tozer, it is recognized that intellectual formation inevitably works in tandem with spiritual formation; the two cannot be separated in practice. In stark contrast to a Wissenschaft model of higher education in which both teacher and student focus on their discipline without regard for who they are before God, Tozer Seminary uses a Christian paideia model that calls for teacher and student alike to be accountable in their character as they do their scholarship.Tozer Seminary Dean Dr. Patrick Blewett Dr. Patrick Blewett was hired as dean of A.W.
