Who We Are
Our learning community, whether theologians or pastors, students or spiritual directors, finds common root in our heritage of being first “Mission Friends.” This Pietist term emphasizes the personal, relational, and spiritual aspects of following Jesus together. As new creatures in Christ, we learn and are formed walking side by side.
Faculty & Staff
Our core faculty and staff form the heartbeat of our seminary community—teaching, planning, mentoring, praying, lecturing, writing, and just a little bit of laughter.
Emeriti Faculty
Generations of pastors and spiritual leaders have trained in the community of North Park Theological Seminary. Our emeriti faculty shape our past and provide foundations for the future.
Adjunct Faculty & Ministry Practitioners
Our adjunct faculty bring their practical and pastoral wisdom to our classrooms across our curriculum.
