Charting Your Path to Ministry

The Robert E. Cooley Seminary is committed to preparing God’s People through accessible and high touch biblical training for the Service of Jesus Christ.

Dr. Robert E. Cooley for the Cooley Center
"Robert E. Cooley Theological Seminary remains committed to serious study of Scripture in its full context. This means study of the ancient artifacts and the lands in which the events of Scripture took place. Other seminaries have reduced their course offerings in Scripture and the biblical languages; Cooley Theological Seminary has not. If you are serious about Scripture, then this is the seminary for you."
