About Us

The Center for Women in Ministry at Samford University’s Beeson Divinity School exists to encourage and equip women called to Christian ministry and to serve as a resource for the Church of Jesus Christ for the edification of the Church and for the thriving of women in ministry.

The Center for Women in Ministry partners with programs and colleagues across the Samford campus, including: Beeson’s Women’s Theological Colloquium, Beeson Alumni Association, Beeson’s Thriving Pastors Initiative, Beeson’s Robert Smith Jr. Preaching Institute, Beeson’s Student Government Association and Minority Student Fellowship, Samford’s Biblical and Religious Studies department, Samford’s Christian Ministry program, Samford’s Center for Worship and the Arts and many others.

The Center for Women in Ministry at Beeson holds to the commitments of Beeson Divinity School and to the two beliefs that God calls women to Christian ministry and the Church needs God-called, theologically trained women in ministry. The center does not take a stance on complementarianism or egalitarianism per se, but rather assists all women in evangelical, Protestant churches (whether complementarian or egalitarian) for the sake of the flourishing of women in ministry.

The center seeks to serve:

Beeson Divinity female students
Beeson Divinity alumnae
Samford female undergrad students pursuing Christian ministry
Churches and church leaders (male and female)
Women in Christian ministry who are not graduates from Beeson/Samford

The center aims to fulfill its mission by providing support in these key areas:

Christian discipleship, maturity and fruitfulness in ministry
Placement services
Resources and networking
Mentoring and peer fellowship
Continuing education
