Dear Trinity Community, Today, we have news of a significant development to share with you—one that marks both a continuation and a bold new chapter in our shared story. After much prayer, discernment, and conversation, TEDS is entering into a formal commitment to take steps toward becoming the seminary of Trinity Western University (TWU) in Langley, British Columbia.

The Gospel of John cuts across the grain of secular culture in much the same way as it entered into the ancient world—as a text that sets out a striking claim about the presence of the invisible God in the material world. Join us today at 10am CT @TEDS youtube.com/watch?v=ryzPl1…

The Gospel of John speaks as narrative reasoning tailored for those inclined to regard the act of directing worship to a human being as absurd. Join us @TEDS on next Monday, April 7, for our event with Dr. Steven Bryan. Available in person or online. eventbrite.com/e/reading-john…

We enjoyed Dr. Jeannine Brown's insightful lecture yesterday, which generated fruitful discussion about how the Gospel of Luke highlights hospitality in its portrayal of Jesus. The video is now available on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/live/ykGsPDn0X…

Tired, lonely parents struggle with superficial family discipleship programs. But by caring for parents’ faith, the church cares for the whole family, argue @MimiLarson16, @lins_goetz, and Ahyuwani Akane. christianitytoday.com/2025/01/discip…
