GRTS Seal
The academic seal of Grand Rapids Theological Seminary, shown below, contains the Latin phrase, Ecclesia Semper Reformanda. This Reformation phrase may be translated, "The Church Always Reforming." The church’s need for ongoing reformation gives meaning, purpose and identity to Grand Rapids Theological Seminary. Specifically, GRTS exists to educate and develop leaders for service to Christ’s church, who in turn will initiate the ongoing reformation of the Church.
The seal also includes three Christian symbols, the cross, the Word, and the crown. At Grand Rapids Theological Seminary, we believe that the ongoing reformation of the church must be rooted in the redemptive/reformational influence of Christ’s death, burial and resurrection; achieved through the proclamation and embodiment of the Word of God; and pursued as manifestation of our deepening submission to the rule of God in Jesus Christ.
