Reformed megachurch, seminary to launch NYC campus
Redeemer Presbyterian Church, led by author and speaker Tim Keller, has partnered with a nondenominational Reformed seminary to form a campus in New York City in 2015.
While many seminaries are still suffering declining revenues since the economic crisis of 2008, Reformed Theological Seminary, based in Jackson, Mississippi, has succeed in building campuses in major cities.
Students at the New York City campus will be trained to start churches by pursuing a two-year master of arts degree in biblical studies at $430–450 per credit hour. They will receive another year of education in church planting from Redeemer. The campus will likely be housed in Redeemer’s offices near Herald Square in Manhattan.
