The Betsey Stockton Center for Black Church Studies offers a concentration enabling students at Princeton Theological Seminary to develop a focused academic program centered on African and African American religious traditions and institutions. This concentration prepares students for vocational ministry or scholarly pursuits that value the unique contributions of Black religious experiences to the totality of Christian faith, life, and witness. It assists seminarians interested in shaping their ministerial preparation for a wider knowledge and deeper appreciation of Black life within American or global Christianity. It is also designed for those who have a scholarly interest in the shape and depth of Black religious life throughout the African diaspora. The concentration requires students to complete nine (9) credits from approved courses (listed below) and one (1) credit through participation in the Black Church Colloquium, which is offered each Spring term. One course (or a maximum of three credits) can be taken at Princeton University in order to fulfill the concentration requirements.
