What Seminary Didn’t Teach Albert Mohler

Albert Mohler, Jr.-presidents of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and TGC Council member-reflects on the things he didn’t learn in seminary.
Many hopeful men emerge from seminary eager to dive headfirst into ministry. Confident that seminary equipped them with the tools they need for the journey ahead, they find themselves discouraged when the realities of their first call don’t line up with what they came to expect from assigned readings and classroom discussions.
This book, with contributions from 15 veteran pastors, including Daniel L. Akin, Juan Sanchez, Phil A. Newton, and Scott Sauls, offers real-world advice about the joys and challenges of the first five years of pastoral ministry-bridging the gap between seminary training and life in a local church.
Armed with wisdom from those who have gone before them, young pastors will find encouragement to stand firm in the thick of the realities and rigors of pastoral ministry.

The only thing seminary really can help you with is learning about the deep theological truths of Scripture and how to write papers lol. Things like building bonds, caring for people, and even preaching in itself comes from the heart through much prayer and meditation with the Spirit.

Personal Christianity is something that is not taught in seminary.
