A History of NOBTS

“From the Baptist Bible Institute to New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, we have served Christ by serving this city.” - Jamie Dew
Whether it was “training for service by training through service” under our first president, Dr. Byron Dement, or “prepare here, serve anywhere” under Dr. Jamie Dew, NOBTS has always been characterized by a dedication to servanthood, devotion, proclamation, and mission.
We are PROUD of our legacy that continues to this day. We are PROUD to be the city of New Orleans. We are PROUD to be NOBTS.
