GRS exists to provide graduate level education and training for pastors, missionaries, teachers, and other interested parties.  All educational enterprises at GRS will be based on the infallible, inerrant Word of God and rooted in the historic creeds of Reformed churches, namely, the Westminster Standards (The Westminster Confession of Faith, The Larger and Shorter Catechisms) or the Three Forms of Unity (The Belgic Confession, The Canons of Dordt, the Heidelberg Catechism).  All the work of GRS is to be characterized by intellectual excellence, doctrinal purity and Christian piety.
