Eden Theological Seminary
Eden Theological Seminary is a
seminary of the
United Church of Christ. It was established in
1850 by German pastors in what was then the American frontier. The pastors soon formed the German
Evangelical Synod of North America. This, after subsequent mergers, became a part of the United Church of Christ. Conversations at Eden Theological Seminary, beginning in 1937, led to the 1957 merger of the
Evangelical and Reformed Church and
Congregational Christian Church and the formation of the United Church of Christ. Famous alumni of Eden include
Reinhold Niebuhr,
H. Richard Niebuhr, and
Walter Brueggemann. It is located in
Webster Groves, Missouri, near
St. Louis, Missouri.
