Pacific Theological Seminary (PTS) began classes in January 2022 after it had been reestablished following the closure of Bethel Seminary San Diego.  To date, the PTS Board has worked with the vision, knowledge, and experience of transitional CEOs to build and ready the seminary to launch.  Currently, we are privileged to search for and find our first full-time president who will build upon the solid foundation others have laid. Readiness to help lead in student recruitment, advancement and accreditation is essential. For more information, please visit us at www.pacificseminary.org.
