‭Introduction‬
‭Regent‭‬‭‬University’s‭‬‭‬School‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Divinity‭‬‭‬has‭‬‭‬developed‭‬‭‬seven‭‬‭‬focus‭‬‭‬areas‭‬‭‬or‭‬‭‬core‬
‭commitments.‭‬‭‬These‭‬‭‬include‭‬‭‬biblical‭‬‭‬fidelity,‭‬‭‬trinitarian‭‬‭‬worship,‭‬‭‬spiritual‭‬‭‬renewal,‭‬‭‬holistic‬
‭formation,‭‬‭‬ecclesial‭‬‭‬focus,‭‬‭‬missional‭‬‭‬leadership,‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬prophetic‭‬‭‬relevance.‭‬‭‬Dr.‭‬‭‬Corne‭‬‭‬Bekker,‬
‭Dean‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬School‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Divinity,‭‬‭‬explains‭‬‭‬that‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬commitments‭‬‭‬exist‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬support‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬school’s‬
‭overarching‭‬‭‬mission.‭‬‭‬Each‭‬‭‬core‭‬‭‬commitment‭‬‭‬exists‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬bring‭‬‭‬glory‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬God.‬
‭Seven‭‬‭‬Core‭‬‭‬Commitments‬
‭Biblical‭‬‭‬fidelity‭‬‭‬represents‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬commitment‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬remain‭‬‭‬faithful‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Bible.‭‬‭‬The‭‬‭‬Lord‭‬‭‬gifted‬
‭man‭‬‭‬with‭‬‭‬an‭‬‭‬intellect‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬ability‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬reason.‭‬‭‬Even‭‬‭‬so,‭‬‭‬academic‭‬‭‬pursuits‭‬‭‬remain‭‬‭‬subject‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‬
‭Word‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬God.‭‬‭‬Academic‭‬‭‬studies‭‬‭‬must‭‬‭‬operate‭‬‭‬within‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬framework‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Bible.‬
‭Trinitarian‭‬‭‬worship‭‬‭‬points‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬nature‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬God‭‬‭‬–‭‬‭‬as‭‬‭‬Father,‭‬‭‬Son,‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬Holy‭‬‭‬Spirit.‭‬‭‬In‭‬‭‬the‬
‭Gospel‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Luke,‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Angel‭‬‭‬Gabriel‭‬‭‬tells‭‬‭‬Mary,‭‬‭‬“The‭‬‭‬Holy‭‬‭‬Spirit‭‬‭‬will‭‬‭‬come‭‬‭‬upon‭‬‭‬you,‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬the‬
‭power‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Most‭‬‭‬High‭‬‭‬will‭‬‭‬cast‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬shadow‭‬‭‬over‭‬‭‬you.‭‬‭‬Therefore‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬child‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬be‭‬‭‬born‭‬‭‬will‭‬‭‬be‭‬‭‬holy;‬
‭he‭‬‭‬will‭‬‭‬be‭‬‭‬called‭‬‭‬Son‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬God.”‬‭1‬ ‭The‭‬‭‬School‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Divinity‭‬‭‬remembers‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬nature‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Triune‭‬‭‬God.‬
‭Spiritual‭‬‭‬renewal‭‬‭‬speaks,‭‬‭‬specifically,‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Holy‭‬‭‬Spirit.‭‬‭‬The‭‬‭‬Holy‭‬‭‬Spirit‭‬‭‬has‭‬‭‬worked‬
‭from‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬time‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬creation‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬continues‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬work‭‬‭‬today.‭‬‭‬Jeremy‭‬‭‬Begbie‭‬‭‬notes‭‬‭‬that,‭‬‭‬“In‭‬‭‬reading‬
‭Scripture,‭‬‭‬it‭‬‭‬is‭‬‭‬not‭‬‭‬simply‭‬‭‬that‭‬‭‬Christ‭‬‭‬meets‭‬‭‬us;‭‬‭‬we‭‬‭‬are‭‬‭‬first‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬all‭‬‭‬freed‭‬‭‬internally‭‬‭‬by‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Spirit‭‬‭‬to‬
‭respond‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬Christ‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬through‭‬‭‬him‭‬‭‬know‭‬‭‬ourselves‭‬‭‬forgiven,‭‬‭‬accepted‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬claimed‭‬‭‬by‭‬‭‬the‬
‭Father.”‬‭2‬ ‭Regent‭‬‭‬University‭‬‭‬studies‭‬‭‬church‭‬‭‬history‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬modern‭‬‭‬church‭‬‭‬through‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬lenses‭‬‭‬of‬
‭the‭‬‭‬renewing‭‬‭‬work‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Holy‭‬‭‬Spirit.‬

‭Through‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬focus‭‬‭‬on‭‬‭‬holistic‭‬‭‬formation,‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬School‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Divinity‭‬‭‬recognizes‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬importance‬
‭of‭‬‭‬God-honoring‭‬‭‬habits‭‬‭‬in‭‬‭‬all‭‬‭‬areas‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬life.‭‬‭‬Dianna‭‬‭‬Clements‭‬‭‬writes‭‬‭‬that,‭‬‭‬“...‭‬‭‬Bible‭‬‭‬school‭‬‭‬leaders‬
‭must‭‬‭‬also‭‬‭‬continuously‭‬‭‬renew‭‬‭‬or‭‬‭‬“sharpen”‭‬‭‬their‭‬‭‬personal‭‬‭‬walk‭‬‭‬with‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Lord‭‬‭‬as‭‬‭‬well‭‬‭‬as‭‬‭‬their‬
‭ministerial‭‬‭‬skills.”‬‭3‬ ‭This‭‬‭‬approach‭‬‭‬benefits‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬believer‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬his‭‬‭‬or‭‬‭‬her‭‬‭‬ministerial‭‬‭‬work.‬
‭Ecclesial‭‬‭‬focus‭‬‭‬honors‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬reason‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬becoming‭‬‭‬Christ-like‭‬‭‬–‭‬‭‬God's‭‬‭‬glory!‭‬‭‬Scribes‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬the‬
‭Kingdom‭‬‭‬glorify‭‬‭‬God‭‬‭‬by‭‬‭‬serving‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Body‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Christ.‭‬‭‬David‭‬‭‬S.‭‬‭‬Dockery‭‬‭‬says,‭‬‭‬“We‭‬‭‬must‬
‭recognize‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬growing‭‬‭‬opportunities‭‬‭‬which‭‬‭‬our‭‬‭‬increasingly‭‬‭‬networked‭‬‭‬globe‭‬‭‬offers‭‬‭‬for‬
‭advancing‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬kingdom‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬God.”‬‭4‬ ‭An‭‬‭‬Ecclesial‭‬‭‬focus‭‬‭‬recognizes‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬God-given,‭‬‭‬integral‭‬‭‬role‭‬‭‬of‬
‭the‭‬‭‬Church.‬
‭Missional‭‬‭‬leadership‭‬‭‬provides‭‬‭‬quality‭‬‭‬training‭‬‭‬to‬‭all‬‭who‭‬‭‬are‭‬‭‬called‭‬‭‬by‭‬‭‬God.‭‬‭‬According‭‬‭‬to‬
‭Veli-Matti‭‬‭‬Karkkainen,‭‬‭‬“The‭‬‭‬whole‭‬‭‬church‭‬‭‬is‭‬‭‬…‭‬‭‬authorized‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬proclaim‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬forgiveness‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬sins,‬
‭the‭‬‭‬task‭‬‭‬which‭‬‭‬is‭‬‭‬in‭‬‭‬fact‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬community’s‭‬‭‬glory.”‬‭5‬ ‭Although‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬specific‭‬‭‬calling‭‬‭‬may‭‬‭‬vary,‭‬‭‬the‬
‭Lord‭‬‭‬calls‭‬‭‬upon‬‭every‬‭member‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Body‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Christ.‬
‭Finally,‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬focus‭‬‭‬on‭‬‭‬prophetic‭‬‭‬relevance.‭‬‭‬Speaking‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬mass‭‬‭‬media,‭‬‭‬Father‭‬‭‬James‬
‭DiGiacomo‭‬‭‬says,‭‬‭‬“The‭‬‭‬basic‭‬‭‬message‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬advertising‭‬‭‬is‭‬‭‬that‭‬‭‬happiness‭‬‭‬can‭‬‭‬be‭‬‭‬bought‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬that‬

‭My‭‬‭‬Focus:‭‬‭‬Biblical‭‬‭‬Fidelity‬
‭As‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬millennial,‭‬‭‬I‭‬‭‬see‭‬‭‬what‭‬‭‬moving‭‬‭‬away‭‬‭‬from‭‬‭‬biblical‭‬‭‬truth‭‬‭‬looks‭‬‭‬like‭‬‭‬–‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬inevitable‬
‭destruction‭‬‭‬it‭‬‭‬causes.‭‬‭‬Exploring‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬pervasive‭‬‭‬problem‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬New‭‬‭‬Age‭‬‭‬influence‭‬‭‬upon‭‬‭‬Christianity,‬
‭April‭‬‭‬D.‭‬‭‬Deconick‭‬‭‬writes,‭‬‭‬“...‭‬‭‬New‭‬‭‬Age‭‬‭‬worlds‭‬‭‬point‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬survival‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Gnostic‭‬‭‬spirituality‭‬‭‬that‬
‭has‭‬‭‬eroded‭‬‭‬conventional‭‬‭‬religions‭‬‭‬today‭‬‭‬just‭‬‭‬as‭‬‭‬it‭‬‭‬did‭‬‭‬in‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬past.”‬‭7‬ ‭Biblical‭‬‭‬fidelity‭‬‭‬remains‬
‭essential‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Church‭‬‭‬–‭‬‭‬something‭‬‭‬I‭‬‭‬will‭‬‭‬consider‭‬‭‬as‭‬‭‬I‭‬‭‬pursue‭‬‭‬my‭‬‭‬degree‭‬‭‬with‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬School‭‬‭‬of‬
‭Divinity.‬
‭Conclusion‬
‭The‭‬‭‬modern‭‬‭‬Church‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬world‭‬‭‬face‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬set‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬challenges‭‬‭‬unique‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬moment.‭‬‭‬Now,‬
‭more‭‬‭‬than‭‬‭‬ever,‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬world‭‬‭‬needs‭‬‭‬well-trained‭‬‭‬scribes‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Kingdom.‭‬‭‬Scribes‭‬‭‬who‭‬‭‬remain‬
‭committed‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬biblical‭‬‭‬truth‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬building‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬Church‭‬‭‬and‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬a‬‭‭‬witness‭‬‭‬to‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬world.‭‬‭‬The‬
‭School‭‬‭‬of‭‬‭‬Divinity’s‭‬‭‬seven‭‬‭‬core‭‬‭‬commitments‭‬‭‬produce‭‬‭‬well-trained‭‬‭‬scribes‭‬‭‬–‭‬‭‬for‭‬‭‬the‭‬‭‬glory‭‬‭‬of‬
‭God.‬
