Stop Saying Everyone Should Go to Seminary

🎙️ Sponsored by TeachEquip — equipping Bible teachers who want to grow in clarity, confidence, and joy. (Also, they’re just awesome.)

Two mics. One massive theological cage match.

In the blue corner: Jimmy, seminary student, Greek-speaker, and general chaos maker.

In the red corner: Kelly, Bible-studying, Spirit-led, school-free savage of Scripture.

The bell rings and it’s ON.

In this delightfully chaotic episode of Clearly, Jimmy and Kelly go toe-to-toe on the question that haunts church nerds everywhere:
SHOULD. YOU. GO. TO. SEMINARY?

💥 Jimmy throws down with “speed, precision, and exposure.”
💥 Kelly counters with “your Bible is already in your house… FOR FREE.”
đź’Ą Greek flies. Sarcasm lands. A kiss attempt is blocked mid-podcast.
💥 And somewhere in the middle, you get real clarity on whether seminary is your next move—or just a shiny distraction from cracking open Leviticus on your own.

Also inside this episode:

  • A “Should I Go to Seminary?” checklist

  • Why seminary can be awesome—or totally unnecessary

  • The story behind Teach Equip, Kelly’s training program for women who want to teach Scripture

  • Multiple Frozen references (unprovoked)

  • One-off jokes that may require repentance later

🎧 So grab your Bible, lace up your theological gloves, and tune in for a no-holds-barred, slightly unhinged, actually super helpful episode of Clearly.
