This course is an examination of the history, character, and distinguishing commitments of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church. Part One will explore the historical setting of the church through a survey of American Presbyterianism from colonial times to the formation of the OPC in 1936. Part Two will study the ethos of the OPC as it has been shaped by the struggles it has experienced. Attention will be given to the church’s relationship with American evangelicalism (including the church’s critics, past and present) and those churches with which the OPC stands in ecclesiastical fellowship. Through a review of different interpretations of the church’s past, students will learn to articulate and defend their own understanding of the identity of the OPC. The 1998 and 1999 General Assemblies approved the Committee on Christian Education’s plan to establish a Ministerial Training Institute of the OPC (MTIOPC).

Dr. James S. Gidley laid out some of MTIOPC’s distinctives in the March 1999 New Horizons article “What Is the MTIOPC?” MTIOPC is designed primarily to provide men who are preparing for gospel ministry (men under care, licentiates) and current OP ministers with instruction supplemental to that which they might receive in seminary. Others, including OP ruling elders, ministers from other denominations, and men in other denominations training for the ministry, also benefit from this instruction.
