Those who wished to study theology at a quality theological institute, but were prevented from doing so because of factors such as distance, work, or position of services, a Chinese evangelical seminary located in Los Angeles has found a solution for them.

Logos Evangelical Seminary online campus will begin offering Masters Courses this fall, which will offer the same exact contents, credits, and fees as that of studying on campus.

In addition, LES stated that the online Masters courses will be taught by professional professors and will include an interactive learning method designed specially for the students, providing actual classroom experience.

Ever since last year, LES has opened courses for acquiring Christian Studies Certificate. For those who have finished these courses, they can transfer the credits earned to courses on Christian Studies Master’s Degree or Master of Divinity.

These online theological courses will give flexibility in time management for those with the desire to study theology and increase the number of workers in the Chinese churches around the world.

Detailed information on the courses offered this fall has been posted on the campus’ website at www.les.edu. For any related questions, please call (626) 571-5110 ext 145. Email: ecampus@les.edu.
