FAR GREATER
You are called to immeasurably more.
“Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine… be glory in the Church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”
Ephesians 3:20–21
The call to serve Christ and his church is immeasurably demanding. But Christ is able to do far more than we can ask or imagine. For more than 90 years, Westminster has trained Bible specialists who have served with faithfulness and endurance. Today we’re pairing Westminster’s trademark excellence with renewed imagination for the cause of Christ and his global church—profound preparation for a profound call.

A RICH HISTORY
The story of Westminster began with a bold act of vision. This is still our spirit today.
“But to Christ, despite all, we hold.” These are the words from founder J. Gresham Machen that launched Westminster almost 100 years ago—and they have remained true to Westminster’s conviction ever since.
