Membership Benefits

Members of Mitchell Road benefit from the ability to take any seminary course for credit while receiving a substantial scholarship (or can audit for free). Courses may be taken for personal spiritual growth, to try out what seminary study feels like, for life-long learning, to prepare for vocational ministry, or to explore how one might integrate the Christian faith in his or her current workplace.

Erskine Theological Seminary is an accredited, Gospel-centered, Presbyterian seminary based in South Carolina founded in 1837. Erskine’s commitments to the Bible as the inerrant Word of God and Reformed theology and its ecclesial and missional spirit resonate with Mitchell Road’s vision to incarnate Christ in word and deed in Greenville, throughout the Upstate, and into all the world.
