    Is anyone here a current student or alumni of Knox Theological Seminary?

    I hold a MA in Religion from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary so I am not asking this question for myself. I am asking this question because I don't believe I have ever heard of anyone who has graduated from this school. I am sure it is a fine school, however I would like to learn more about it from someone who has actually attended/earned a degree from Knox.

    No knowledge

    I really don't know much about the seminary except for information from their own web site and literature. One of my former employees did leave and go there but I haven't heard from him for several years. It's a little strange but I don't know any graduates either. However, Robert Reymond, whom I respect and admire, teaches there. My overall impression is a pretty standard, conservative Reformed perspective. However, my former employee seemed to have some theonomic leanings but I don't think this was the factor in his choice of a seminary.

    From a leadership standpoint, I would like to know more of the second tier leadership. In other words, who will fill the shoes when Dr. Kennedy passes from the scene? From the faculty, I don't see a dynamic young scholar who can push the seminary development. They appear to have a good, solid faculty but I don't see the dynamic type of leadership that Dr. Kennedy has provided. Who has the energy, drive and vision for the future?

    Baptist seminary?

    I really hate to be a stick in the mud but Knox hardly qualifies as a Baptist seminary. This thread appears under Baptist Seminaries and Colleges. :smilewinkgrin:

    Hey Paid,

    How goes it?

    Can we not at least mention a "sister seminary?" Many of us have done grad work at other than Baptist seminaries and think we may be the better for it?

    In my own case, I became a "better Baptist" or at least a more knowledgable one because I studied in another venue.

    Just an old man's thoughts.

    Indeed. Besides, it makes infinitely more sense to place inquiries here than on some other "nether region" of the board.

    When I get to heaven, I'm going to ask Jesus why he was a Baptist!
