Doing a DMin with Scot and my cohort sisters and brothers was indescribably enriching and enjoyable. The learning and the fellowship were priceless. I’ll forever treasure the experience.

I read Mike Bird’s piece, and I think he’s pretty much right, and I’d want to emphasize the in-person cohort aspect as especially important. Go learn together and BE together. It sounds like the Houston Seminary setup is ideal, both in its academic excellence and its location at the retreat center and Lanier Library! Magnificent!

I’m a current DMin student there in my second year and everything Scot says is true! Another benefit is we have access to the Lanier Theological Library, an amazing place. And then there’s Texas barbecue, the best in the world. So excited to have you there Scot!! See you in Houston.

2nd best BBQ. The best is in Kansas City. I miss it . . . since I live in Texas.

Just thought I'd try to get the barbecue wars started. :)

One perk that would be attractive to me if I were a student is the shuttle service from the airport to the conference center!

I have been working on my PhD in Interreligious studies from a University in Indonesia. My focus has been on Jesus in Indonesian Islam. However, an accident in Indonesia has forced me to move back home to the US. So I am currently looking into other programs. Maybe this is my next landing spot. I will look into it. Thanks for the post.
