Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond (BTSR) is a seminary in Richmond, Virginia. It was founded in March 1989 by Virginia Baptists related to the Southern Baptist Alliance and Baptist General Association of Virginia. In the late 1980’s, as the situation began to change in Southern Baptist life, others in the region joined them in seeing the need for alternative options for theological education among Baptists.
BTSR is part of the Richmond Theological Consortium (RTC), along with two other theological schools: Union Theological Seminary-Presbyterian School of Christian Education (PCUSA) and the School of Theology at Virginia Union University (American Baptist). Students at each school may cross-register for electives at the others. BTSR is also a member of the Washington Theological Consortium.
