Welcome to McAfee School of Theology!

The community of the McAfee School of Theology at Mercer University is interested in getting to know you. We want to hear the ways in which you have experienced God’s calling in your life and to join with you in imagining, discovering, and creating God’s future. In order to help you prepare for a vocation in ministry, the McAfee School of Theology offers a fully integrated program of study that places theological education within a nationally recognized research university, working alongside vibrant community partners.

Our hope is to nurture the spiritual life and character of students in a community that values both authentic scholarship and commitment to calling. Our students are equipped for leadership through personal mentoring, focused courses, and a deep commitment to building a theological community – that is, the integration of scholarship and experience in the practical tasks of ministry.

McAfee and Mercer have a great deal to offer: the resources of a nationally renowned university, a robust financial aid program, a first-rate faculty of scholars, and a vast network of partners in Atlanta and beyond. Join us at McAfee in living out your vocational calling and passions for service to God and neighbor.

I look forward to getting to know you on your journey,

Rev. Dr. C. Greg DeLoach
