Vision & Mission

The European Theological Seminary e.V. is an educational institution in the heart of the Black Forest, where we offer an accredited degree in church ministry with an emphasis on pastoral ministry, missions, counseling, church music, or Christian education. In addition, we offer master’s degrees in Marriage & Family Studies, and in Pentecostal-Charismatic Theology. 
Our goal is to equip people from all over the world to fulfill the Great Commission and to provide them with the practical tools needed in their respective major so that they can effectively serve in leadership roles in churches, missions and society. 
This involves a holistic learning process on three levels: knowing, being and doing. 
• Classroom lectures and learning activities encourage academic reflection and dialogue. (Knowing) 
• Life in the spiritual community emphasizes social, spiritual, and character formation. (Being) 
• Practica and internships help to integrate learned material and personal development through practically engaging in real life ministry situations. (Doing)      

 

Celebrating 75 Years

The European Theological Seminary is celebrating 75 years of faith, education, and ministry! For seven and a half decades, we have been committed to equipping students for lives of service and leadership. Nestled in the heart of the Black Forest, Germany, ETS has been a place where alumni, students, faculty, and friends gather to worship, learn, and reflect on the incredible journey God has led us on. As we look back on 75 years of impact, we remain dedicated to shaping the future with faith, hope, and a steadfast commitment to our mission.
