WELCOME

Welcome to Reformed Evangelical Seminary

Reformed Evangelical Seminary exists because the needs of the church and the world today are so great.

The global church needs more well-equipped pastors and leaders to shepherd God’s people in the whole counsel of God to better serve Christ and his Kingdom in every sphere of life.

Our broken world desperately needs the gospel. A lost and confused generation needs more pastors, evangelists, and missionaries to proclaim abroad the Great News that Jesus is the Savior and King of the universe. He alone can breathe new life into spiritually dead-dry bones and straighten out our sin-warped world by the power of his Word and Spirit.

How shall the church hear the whole counsel of God? How shall the world’s lost and confused hear the Great News of the gospel of Jesus Christ? “How shall they hear without a preacher?” — Romans 10:14.

Reformed Evangelical Seminary equips pastors and church leaders to meet these priority needs for the sake of the Lord, the church, and the world for such a time as this.

The Seminary offers quality, affordable online courses and degree programs in the Scriptures and theology. Its online format doesn’t uproot families or expect its students to leave their homes and livelihoods behind to attend classes. Instead, RES students continue living, working, and worshiping right in their own home communities and congregations while they study. They remain surrounded by the families they love and the saints who know them best—the very ones who are best equipped to hold them accountable and affirm their gifts and callings. The needs of the Lord’s bride, his church, take priority at RES. The Seminary assists the church (not the other way around) for equipping her pastors, missionaries, evangelists, and leaders.

Reformed Evangelical Seminary is gratefully rooted in the historic Reformed tradition and stands on the shoulders of our Protestant forefathers. We share their passion for God’s Word and His Bride, the Church. We share their zeal for theological wisdom and maturity in the spirit of semper reformanda. We share their commitment to the advancement of Christ’s Kingdom in all spheres of life.
