Undergraduate Programs; Distance Learning.

I am rather new to this board, but have been following events on this thread for a few weeks in regards to Baptist educational institutions

I am seeking a distance learning program at the undergraduate level to obtain a bachelors in theology and biblical languages.

My goal is to continue to the graduate level and (Lord willing) and receive a Ph.D
in order that I may teach at a seminary or college.

It does not matter to a certain degree if the college is SBC or IFB affiliated, but it must have the proper accredidation, be academically challenging and respected
(No degree mills) and biblically sound.

From a rather lengthy ongoing search that I have conducted on the Internet, it seems that most of the colleges associated with the IFB are geared more to producing "preacher boys", whereas the SBC colleges have a more scholarly leaning in matters of theology, bible, and biblical languages, which is where
my interest is; becoming a biblical scholar and teacher.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with becoming a "preacher boy". They are needed. I belong to an IFB church, and have heard several young men from two IFB colleges (Ambassador and Crown), and they where strong and gifted preachers. We need preaching pastors as well as good Baptist scholars.
God is leading me down the path of the latter in order that I may serve Him in the defence of the faith, which is rapidly being wittled away by the secular humanists and the compromising.

Any thoughts? I know that many discussions have taken place in regards to this type of inquiry, but there is so much info and to little time to sift out all the data contained within this thread.

I only beg of you all, that this not become an SBC vs. IFB free for all.

In Christ Always,
