School of Theology and Missions at Union

Our Faculty

The STM is known as a school characterized by outstanding classroom teachers. Our professors have received the Faculty of the Year Award at Union seven times. Several of us also teach regularly in seminaries and theological schools all over the world. As a faculty, we seek to integrate excellent classroom teaching, a deep commitment to Christ, extensive ministry experience in local churches and/or the mission field, and outstanding scholarship. As disciple-makers, we also give personal attention to our students and many of us host students in our homes for fellowship and ministry.
