THE SEMINARY

Our Distinctives

We are more than just another Bible seminary — more than just another Christian College or Christian University. We hold ourselves to the highest standards of biblical study and truth. Our distinctives cumulatively make our institution unique among biblical seminaries in a day and age where the Word of God is not taken at face value, and core doctrines are being diluted.

Our Mission

Southern California Seminary’s mission is to bring glory to God by assisting local churches to equip believers of various cultures and languages to live and minister biblically based on the inerrant Word of God. This equipping includes building biblical knowledge, Christian character, and ministry skills—all at modest tuition.

LET'S STAND TOGETHER.

Ways that your generous contributions support the mission of SCS:

Student Scholarships including General Student Scholarships awarded to numerous student’s annually to help make educational costs more affordable; the Ministry Workers Scholarship to support students serving as staff in local church ministry; the Dr. Gary and Donna Coombs Equippers Scholarship awarded to qualifying students to complete their educational training, the Over The Top Scholarship to help MDiv students in the final year of their program who have financial need.

Church-Matching Program, working with local churches to support selected students in achieving their educational goals.

Faculty Funding and Professional Development Support, for promoting faculty excellence in teaching, conservative biblical scholarship, and Christian mentoring.
