Dr. G.Bilkes is my advisor, and he is a tremendous asset to Puritan. |
I'd concur with Jerrold!
Besides the cost of $150/unit, the added benefit of doing 1-week intensive courses in Grand Rapids allows pastors to get away, but also be back to their sheep in a timely manner. This benefits both pastor and parish.
I am doing the Historical Theology track. My advisor is Dr. Joel Beeke. So far I have taken one course by directed study on english Non-Conformity with Robert Oliver and two courses in Grand Rapids on Lutheran Orthodoxy with Robert Kolb and Forerunners of the Reformation with Carl Trueman. Next Spring, both Robert Godfrey (History of Dutch Reformation) and Sinclair Ferguson will be teaching (Westminster Assembly).
I submit that no other seminary can offer that lineup of instructors, at least for Historical Theology.
