This is a group of churches that separated from the Northern Baptist Convention over theological differences stemming from the fundamentalist–modernist controversy conflict earlier in the 20th century.^{[citation needed]} The school was originally known as the Conservative Baptist Theological Seminary and was based in Englewood, Colorado.^{[citation needed]} Carey Thomas became the Seminary's first president.^{[citation needed]}

In 1956, Vernon Grounds was appointed as the second president and remained so until 1979.

In June 1962, the seminary was granted associate membership in the American Association of Theological Schools (now the Association of Theological Schools). Full ATS accreditation was achieved in 1971.^{[citation needed]}
