At Southern Seminary, we recognize the need for God-called ministers' wives to be prepared for ministry.
The courses in the Seminary Wives Institute (SWI) are designed to give ministers' wives biblically based and practically applied teaching. They are taught by our own seminary faculty as well as faculty wives and guest speakers. We are committed to make this institute a vital part of the seminary wife's experience at Southern Seminary.
We are very excited about returning to Norton Hall in August for in person SWI classes once again. Here are course descriptions for the fall along with some advance word about some new courses for the spring:
We are also glad to publish our proposed three year class schedule:
