Temple Baptist
Theological Seminary

Temple Baptist Theological Seminary is a division of Brewton-Parker College and provides graduate-level biblical, theological, and ministry education and training for Pastors, ministers, and others who wish to be prepared to serve Christ in the local church and through other ministries.
Situated strategically in South Georgia, Temple Baptist Theological Seminary of Brewton-Parker College, is prepared to meet the needs of Georgia Baptist Churches through the online master’s programs. These programs are tailored to fit the busy schedules of pastors, staff ministers, bivocational ministers, and lay persons who may not be able to leave the ministry field and pursue education full-time. The emphases for Temple Baptist Theological Seminary are both academic and practical. Our faculty have significant ministry and mission experience and are equipped to not only deliver course content but to provide dialog about current ministry issues being faced in the real world of the church and culture.

To facilitate a seamless educational experience, Temple Baptist Theological Seminary will provide each course in an eight-week long session. Each sixteen-week semester will have two of the eight-week sessions – we typically call them sub-terms 1 and 2, or sessions 1 and 2. There will be three semesters provided each year: Fall, Spring, and Summer. Students may take a course each 8 weeks or space the courses depending upon their ministry commitments, and at a normal pace of two courses per semester, the MAM program can be completed in less than two years.

The cost is extremely competitive at $325 per credit hour, thus for each 3 hour class the cost is $975. However, if you’re a member or minister of an SBC church, alumni of Brewton-Parker College, or alumni of TTU, there is a 20% scholarship discount that can be applied. The end result would be $260 per credit hour and each course then is $780. TBTS students are eligible for financial assistance through student loans.
