The Triple A Model: Academy, Abbey, Apostolate®

Founding Dean, Dr. Doug Strong, reflects upon the initial vision of Seattle Pacific Seminary, known as the “The Triple A Model: Academy, Abbey, Apostolate®.” This way of doing theological education focuses on an interplay of scholarship, spiritual edification, and service learning.

Why I Teach at SPU

Jeff Keuss, Associate Professor of Christian Ministry, Theology, and Culture

“I teach at SPU because I believe that education can be transformative. The moment a student encounters a new idea, text, way of reading Scripture, piece of art, new friendships, and the God who is behind all truth is a moment of grace. I believe that this happens at a place like SPU that transforms not only the student but also the community and world into which the student is called. To watch God work in such ways is an amazing gift, and I get a ringside seat to these moments as a professor at SPU.”
