So here's my question: Would it be unwise and presumptuous to assume that one could attend a biblically sound seminary and then go back to serve in an American Baptist Church, or is the goal to change one church in the denomination futile?
This will depend on your calling. Several things will change for you while you are in a Reformed seminary. IMO go to a "good" seminary, continue to pray for your denomination, see what doors open, and then make your decision .... (there is no way I can describe the struggle you will have in all of this, but it will mature you ..., which we all need).
