Kingsley College Australia

Kingsley College was until 2008 a Wesleyan Methodist Church of Australia school of theology located in Melbourne, Australia.

Its student body had always been largely non-Wesleyan Methodist, and without the students from other Christian denominations the school probably could not have survived as long as it did.[1][2]

History

The college was founded by President of the Australian Wesleyan Methodist Conference and editor of the Australian Wesleyan Kingsley Ridgway in 1948, and was (despite being in Melbourne) until 2008 a member institute of the Sydney College of Divinity.[1][3][4]

It was originally known as the Wesleyan Methodist Bible College of Australia;[1] but in 1973 its name was changed to honour its founder upon his retirement.[5] It was funded initially from donations made by Wesleyan Methodist church members in North America, reported by Ridgway as being "in the neighbourhood of one dollar (six shillings) per member over the whole connexion".[3] Its first principal was professor Leo G. Cox, an American who was elected Conference President in 1948 after Ridgway.[3]

In January 2008 it merged with Tabor Victoria, with the majority of its staff and faculty and the whole of its library transferred to Tabor, with its original building and property scheduled to be sold.[6][better source needed][7][third-party source needed] What was left of Kingsley provided only Methodist ministerial training under the umbrella of Tabor, with the tertiary education moving to Tabor.[6][better source needed][7][third-party source needed]

Kingsley was a member of the South Pacific Association of Bible Colleges, and was previously associated with the Australian College of Ministries.[citation needed]

Currently theological education is provided under the auspices of Unity College Australia.[citation needed]
