St Mellitus College

If our faith does not stretch our minds it will probably not stretch our lives.

Mike Lloyd

If you are a theologian, you will pray truly. And if you pray truly, you are a theologian.

Evagrios Pontikos, C4th

Theology is the science of faith. It is the conscious and methodological explanation and explication of the divine revelation received and grasped in faith.

Karl Rahner

There is no detached knowing of God any more than there is detached love of neighbour.

Diogenes Allen

Nearly all the wisdom we possess... consists of two parts: the knowledge of God and of ourselves.

John Calvin

Non-accredited courses

School of Theology
St Paul’s Theological Centre runs a ‘School of Theology’ - a programme primarily for those interested in an introduction to theology, for lay people in secular work or for those who have just finished an Alpha course, that runs on Saturday mornings at St Paul’s Onslow Square. For more information, click HERE.

Monday Theology
The 'Monday Theology' course opens up the teaching offered for accredited students at St Paul's Theological Centre on Monday mornings, or at NTMTC on Tuesday (Shadwell) or Thursday evenings (Chelmsford) to a limited number of people who simply want to audit the course. It offers the opportunity to deepen theological understanding, to link learning with involvement in church life and to receive training for leadership and church planting.

Testimonies

The Bishop of London Richard Chartres

We believe that as we pursue the harder path of unity in diversity, the College will prove to be an instrument of the Spirit in equipping the whole people of God to proclaim the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

The Bishop of Chelmsford John Gladwin

The Dean Revd Dr Graham Tomlin

It brings together students from across the spectrum of the church to learn about and prepare for mission in the contemporary world, in a way that tries to be open to the Spirit of God and learning from each other. We have a fantastic group of students, a great staff team and it is a privilege to be part of it.”
