Why Women's Seminary?

Rethinking Higher Education

Women are looking for more than head knowledge. They know that information does not equate transformation. Women are increasingly hungry for living knowledge grounded in truth and reason. They seek wisdom, healing, fulfillment, and an encounter with Jesus. A women-centric model is purposefully cultivated to address the specificities  of biblical womanhood.

History in the Making

Problem-Based & Experiential 

Come and Behold Women's Seminary (CBWS) emerged from a profound necessity, responding to an urgent call for higher education reform driven by financial, ideological, and social imperatives. In a landscape rich with commendable institutions, we chose to forge a model that resonates deeply with the contemporary woman, thoughtfully addressing her unique needs in terms of core beliefs, finances, and sociability. At the heart of our approach lies the compassionate essence of Jesus for women, fostering safe environments conducive to spiritual growth and intimacy with Him. While coeducational settings offer valuable experiences, there is an undeniable strength found in learning alongside a community of sisters. Thus, CBWS stands as a rigorous, heartfelt, orthodox, and spirit-filled seminary and communal learning network dedicated to exploring tough questions and nurturing a transformative educational journey. We are an international community welcoming women worldwide.
