Who? Meet the New Wineskins Initiative executive advisory council, who, in partnership with Executive Director and Provost Leland Eliason, intentionally introduce new friends to the vision of Bethel Seminary.

What? The passion of Bethel Seminary is to advance the gospel of Jesus Christ among all people in culturally sensitive ways. As a Spirit-empowered, biblically grounded community of learning, Bethel strives to develop and equip whole and holy persons to serve and lead so that churches and ministry agencies can become all they are called to be and do all they are called to do in the world for the glory of God.

How? Through dinners, gatherings, and church visits

Why? Because donors believe with a passion that Bethel Seminary’s “three centers” education is the “new wineskin” that will nurture and provide future transformational leaders of the church.

Do you passionately believe this too? Join us. See www.bethel.edu. Choose “Giving to Bethel,” then choose “New Wineskins." ·
