Welcome to the Women’s Weekend Seminary courses! The Women’s Weekend Seminary, under the sponsorship of Lansdale Presbyterian Church, offers a condensed seminary curriculum for women. A full description can be found in a downloadable brochure.

I am providing various course documents online, which you are free to download. The materials written by me are very much works in progress. They are tentative in nature, and subject to repeated alteration and improvement. Not everything in them represents settled views on my part.
