The Global Center exists to encourage, connect, and equip Samford's campus and the church for cross-cultural and global mission.
The Global Center allows divinity students and the Birmingham community to better understand and participate in global Christianity. World missions and evangelization were of the heart of Ralph Waldo Beeson's concern. His generosity made possible a divinity school charged to develop quality theological education in a Christian university setting from an evangelical perspective and a Global Center that brings together information, people and purposes of a missionary God. In rhythm with the heartbeat of our missionary God and the charge of its benefactor, the Global Center of Beeson Divinity School seeks to build awareness of the global Christian cause and community by sending equipped Beeson students into every part of the world and inviting the world into the Beeson and Birmingham communities.
The Global Center has recently undergone renovation. Our updated space is designed with two goals in mind. The first being a larger, more inviting and welcoming space for students to attend our missions-oriented events. Secondly, the new wall display will share a beautiful timeline of the history of salvation for all tongues, tribes and nations, beginning with the Bible and continuing with a history of missions narrating what God is doing around the world today.
