Are You Ready to Take Your Faith to the Next Level?
In a post-Christian world, the ability to remain steadfast in the truth requires intentional preparation.
Whether you need integrated apologetics-focused Christian education or cutting-edge Christian worldview and discipleship resources for you or your church, we have you covered.
To effectively engage our post-Christian culture with the Gospel, you will need a deeply integrated understanding of philosophy, theology, and apologetics. This integrated apologetics-focused approach is the core of every SES program. Whether you’re seeking a degree or certificate in apologetics, philosophy, biblical studies, or something else, the foundation is the same. Good philosophy provides a solid foundation from which to do theology, and both provide necessary tools for sound apologetics. Together, all three disciplines aid in removing obstacles to the Gospel (evangelism) and in building mature disciples who live the Gospel (discipleship) and are steadfast in the truth.
“[Apologetics] is opening the door, clearing the rubble, and getting rid of the hurdles so that people can come to Christ."
Dr. Norman Geisler, SES Co-Founder
Apologetics-Focused Academics
Featured Academic Programs
Undergraduate
SES offers a Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies designed to prepare students for later graduate work in apologetics, philosophy, biblical studies, and more. Some hours may also be applied to M.A. studies.
In addition to apologetics degrees, several academically rigorous Masters degrees are available that provide students with integrated and in-depth studies that will prepare you for ministry or doctoral work.
A Doctor of Ministry in Apologetics (D.Min.) as well as a Doctor of Philosophy in Philosophy of Religion (Ph.D.) offer students opportunities to develop their own research and practical resources.
For-credit certificates are offered in a number of areas of concentration. You're enrolled in the same classes as degree students, earning the same credits that can be applied to a degree in the future.

"Give me, O Lord, a steadfast heart, which no unworthy affection may drag downwards; give me an unconquered heart, which no tribulation can wear out; give me an upright heart, which no unworthy purpose may tempt aside. Bestow on me also, O Lord my God, understanding to know you, diligence to seek you, wisdom to find you, and faithfulness that may finally embrace you, through Jesus Christ our Lord."
