Seminarians and Writers: We're looking for some contributors
We're working on bringing some new life to GoingtoSeminary.com and we're looking for some people who might be interested in occasionally contributing blog posts. So if you've had some seminary experience and consider yourself a writer, we'd love to hear from you.
If you're interested, we can talk about a schedule for contributing content. We'll include a brief bio to your posts and a link back to your own blog or website.
We’re looking for posts that are about 300–700 words and can discuss anything that might benefit someone interested in going to seminary. Here’s a stream-of-consciousness list of some topic ideas:
- How to afford seminary
- Seminary after 40
- How to prepare for seminary
- How to choose a seminary
- Getting the most out of your seminary education
- Seminary success stories (testimonials)
- How to support a spouse in seminary
- Online seminary opportunities
- How seminary prepares you for ministry
- Life after seminary (how to prepare for a specific career and get hired)
If you think you might be interested, simply respond to this post and we'll get in touch with you and work out the details.
Thank you!

The target audience for this website seems (I may have missed something) to exclusively contain Protestants, at least principally of Reformed/Evangelical persuasions. Is it your intention to continue this? Would Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, etc. seminarians/writers ever be considered? Do you believe that they may have something to contribute to this endeavour? How ecumenical is your intention?

Please consider including me in this effort. I can't address all of the bullets, but I can speak to "Seminary after 40," "Online seminary opportunities," and a couple of others.
Thank you,
Donnie

I might also be interested in this.

BTW, I could do on one "Seminary for laypeople" (i.e., people not intending to go into "ministry" per se, but wanting to grow in their biblical/theological understanding and in integration of their faith with all aspects of life and vocation). It would probably end up being a gentle nudge to consider Regent College, which specializes in that sort of lay theological education, unlike most other seminaries.
Also, someone needs to do one on "Women in seminary" but I don't want to touch that one with a 10-foot pole! [:)] (I know there will be flak, and it would be VERY hard to do a good job on this one within the 300-700 word limit.) However I could probably recommend someone who might want to try it. Not sure I know any within the Logos user community, though, but maybe someone who could be convinced to try out Logos with the hook of some Logos credit.

I am interested - particularly in preparing book reviews for material that would be of interest to seminarians. See my previous efforts at
http://pastor-patrick.blogspot.com
Specific examples that might be of interest to current seminarians might include:
- http://pastor-patrick.blogspot.com/2014/05/companion-to-old-testament-review.html
- http://pastor-patrick.blogspot.com/2014/04/feasting-on-gospels-matthew-volumes-i.html
- http://pastor-patrick.blogspot.com/2014/04/biblical-preachng-review.html
There are others, but these are some of the reviews that I have prepared over the past few months.
Thank you for allowing us to participate.
Blessings,

I am interested, and have been blogging my way through seminary here: www.goingtodamasc.us
I believe I have some content that might be of ready use for this site.

Don't know Jayson's thinking, but the idea of 'real' seminaries being discussed with 'real' Bible software usage would sure be an attractive. I suppose someone would think 'advertising' but I don't know how to avoid that. The example of Regents is a good one.

Our efforts to revive GoingtoSeminary.com will include expanding the audience of the blog. By asking Logos users to contribute, we're hoping to post a wide variety of content from various denominational perspectives--all relating to seminary of course.

Does that include perspectives of seminarians who do not consider their respective ecclesial affiliations to be denominations, e.g., Catholics and Eastern Orthodox?

Most definitely! My apologies for the poor word choice.

Thanks so much to all of you who are interested in contributing! I'll be in touch with you in the next two weeks to discuss topics you're interested in and a timeline that works for you.
Our need for contributors is not closed though. If you are just seeing this post now, I'd still love to get in touch with you.

That's great - I had thought it probably did, but I wanted to be sure. Hopefully you'll get some writers from these churches!
