Education
for Ministry (EFM) is a distance learning, theological
education
program of the School of Theology at the University of the South in
Sewanee, Tennessee. We meet on Wednesdays from 6:30 to 9pm, September
through June. Completion of the program takes four years, during which
participants study the Old and New Testaments, church history, and
twentieth century theology. Participants commit one year at a time to
meet weekly in seminars led by a trained mentor. Through weekly reading
assignments, group discussion and theological reflection, participants
develop knowledge and confidence about the ministry we are each called
to in Baptism.

wish to, may bring a bag lunch and continue the conversation until

supplemented with a book that relates to scripture. We are
informal in our approach, with everyone welcome to share in expressing
a wide variety of views on any given text. All are welcome.
