Phoenix Seminary

Phoenix Seminary trains men and women for Christ-centered ministry for the building up of healthy churches in Phoenix and the world.  We accomplish this through our philosophy of scholarship with a shepherd's heart.

Our global society is increasingly defined as "rudderless" when it comes to truth. Indeed there has never been a more crucial time for biblical accuracy, clarity, and direction for emerging leaders. Scripture remind us “…not to be children in our thinking.”

Phoenix Seminary is a Protestant, evangelical seminary that shapes men and women for ministry with essential foundational tools so that as pastors, missionaries, or ministry leaders, they can carry out their biblical calling and significantly impact the world through the Church on its mission.

Phoenix Seminary will guide you to navigate wisely any area of calling or interest. We do not set out to answer every question, but our faculty, staff, and curriculum will equip emerging Christian leaders with the language skills, interpretational methods, theological scaffolding, and chronicled historical background necessary for solving these questions on their own.

We believe effective theological education integrates biblical scholarship, practical ministry experience through local churches, and one-on-one character mentoring. We recognize the importance of retaining professors and instructors who are well-published scholars but also ministry practitioners able to give our students a rigorous, effective, holistic education. We augment classroom teaching by partnering with local churches to provide the hands-on skill development that simply cannot come via the classroom. As a result, our graduates are prepared to lead in the midst of challenging new cultural and ministry settings with a solid foundation of biblical understanding and ministry skill sets. 

Phoenix Seminary seeks to promote personal and spiritual growth through the alignment of degree program student outcomes with the following educational values:
