A Clear Path: The Key for Steady Spiritual Growth

Follow a Clear Path

Remove your roadblocks with step-by-step guidance and personal mentoring.

Growth doesn’t happen overnight—it’s the result of consistent, intentional effort over time. Whether it’s physical fitness, spiritual maturity, or theological understanding, steady progress is key. But staying motivated for long-term growth can be challenging. That’s where having a clear path makes all the difference.

Consider how much easier it is to maintain a fitness routine when you have a trainer. You show up, and they already have the plan ready for you. There’s no need to decide what to do each day or wrestle with skipping the hard exercises—you just follow the plan. Even short sessions, when guided and consistent, can yield incredible results over time.

The same principle applies to your spiritual growth and theological education. At Redemption Seminary, every course is structured with a clear, step-by-step path to keep you focused and moving forward. Even if you only have 15 minutes a day, you can make meaningful progress.

When you log into your Redemption course, your next steps are waiting for you. Typically, these steps include watching a 5–10 minute video, reading for 5–10 minutes, and answering application questions in your digital workbook. Whether you complete just one session or decide to keep going, the process is straightforward and effective.

As you advance, you’ll reach a point where you’re ready to register for mentor review sessions. These one-on-one conversations with a dedicated mentor help solidify your understanding, answer your questions, and provide personalized guidance. This seamless combination of structured coursework and mentoring ensures steady, measurable growth.

One Redemption student used his lunch breaks to work through the master’s program, proving that even small, consistent investments of time can lead to significant achievements. The clear path laid out in Redemption’s courses made it possible for him to turn brief moments into long-term success.

At Redemption Seminary, we’ve made your path straight so you can focus on showing up and growing. Whether you’re aiming for spiritual maturity, ministry preparation, or theological expertise, our structured approach keeps you on track without the overwhelm of planning your next steps.

You don’t need to conquer everything at once—just take the next step. We’re here to guide you every step of the way.

The Best Way to Learn at Your Own Pace

Learning at your own pace doesn’t have to be lonely

Take as long as you want with coursework and then get weekly personal live meetings with a mentor.

Innovative Learning at Redemption Seminary: Flexibility Meets Personal Mentorship

Learning at your own pace doesn’t have to mean learning alone. Redemption Seminary has reimagined online theological education with a unique, innovative model that combines self-paced coursework with live, weekly mentoring sessions. This approach offers flexibility while maintaining a strong emphasis on personal connection and relational learning.

Traditional self-paced programs often feel like impersonal correspondence courses, with little to no interaction between students and professors. Redemption Seminary is different. We prioritize mentorship and meaningful engagement by pairing students with dedicated mentors who meet with them weekly. These mentors are not only experts in their field but also take the time to understand your unique context, making the learning experience personal, relevant, and impactful.

The core of this model is our workbook-based approach. Each course equips you with everything you need to complete the work independently, at your own pace. Once you’ve made progress, your mentor reviews your work with you in a conversational, one-on-one setting. This allows you to deepen your understanding, ask questions, and gain insights that are directly applicable to your life and ministry.

The flexibility of Redemption’s model extends to how you structure your learning. You can choose to complete all the coursework before beginning your mentoring sessions or start mentoring right away, progressing through the material alongside your mentor. This adaptability ensures that the program fits seamlessly into your life, regardless of your schedule or responsibilities.

Unlike some online programs that compress learning into short, high-pressure eight-week terms, Redemption’s courses allow you to take the time you need to master the material. Mentoring sessions are organized into eight-week terms, giving you a clear framework while still accommodating your unique pace and situation. Whether you’re juggling family, work, or ministry, this model provides the support you need without adding unnecessary stress.

Adding to the richness of the experience is our vibrant student community. Redemption students often connect to share advice, encouragement, and guidance, creating a supportive network of peers who are walking similar paths.

At Redemption Seminary, you don’t have to choose between flexibility and connection. Our innovative model empowers you to learn at your own pace while providing personal mentorship and community support. This is theological education designed to meet you where you are and help you grow into the ministry God has called you to.

All Books Included

Graduate with a Library not a Loan

All books, recorded lectures, and required readings are included with each course.

When you pursue a Master of Arts degree at Redemption Seminary, you’re not just earning a degree—you’re building a lifelong ministry toolkit. One of the program’s most significant benefits is that every course includes access to a custom digital library, designed to equip you for ministry far beyond your studies.

This isn’t just any library. It’s a customized Logos digital library packed with theological resources, commentaries, and tools carefully curated for each course. If you were to purchase these resources individually, their value would exceed $23,000. At Redemption Seminary, however, these materials come included with your tuition, eliminating the need for additional book purchases. The best part is that after completing all of the courses in the MABS program, the library is transferred to your personal library as a graduation gift.

Why does this matter?

• It allows you to budget with confidence. There are no hidden book fees or unexpected costs—what you see is what you pay. This simplicity is a refreshing change from traditional models where students are often left scrambling to purchase expensive textbooks each semester.

• The value extends beyond financial savings. By the time you graduate, this digital library becomes your personal ministry resource, filled with the tools and texts you’ve already studied and applied throughout your program. Whether you’re preparing sermons, leading Bible studies, or conducting theological research, this library becomes a trusted companion in your ministry.

• Traditional seminary programs often leave graduates with limited access to the resources they used during their studies. Redemption Seminary flips this model, ensuring that what you learn remains accessible for years to come. This approach not only saves money but also empowers graduates to continue growing and serving effectively in their calling.

In essence, Redemption Seminary’s approach reflects its mission: to prepare you for ministry by providing practical, long-term tools for success. Including this $23,000 library ensures that you leave the program with a degree and the resources to make a meaningful impact in your ministry.

When considering the next step in your theological education, think beyond tuition. Consider the tools and resources you’ll carry with you. At Redemption Seminary, it’s not just about earning a degree—it’s about equipping you for a lifetime of ministry.

Personalized Mentorship at Redemption: Tailoring Education to Your Life and Ministry

Your Pick the Voices that Speak into Your Life

Choose the mentors you want for each course

At Redemption Seminary, we believe that education should be deeply personal. We’ve chosen to go beyond the typical classroom approach by embracing one of the oldest and most effective methods of learning: mentorship. Instead of just sitting through lectures and taking exams, we want you to engage in a learning experience that’s tailored to who you are, where you are, and what God is calling you to do.

Mentorship: A Tradition That Puts You First

For millennia, mentorship has been one of the most powerful ways to learn. From ancient philosophers to church leaders, having someone guide you through life and learning has always been invaluable. At Redemption, we bring that tradition to life by offering you the chance to work one-on-one with a mentor throughout your course.

The best part? You get to choose your mentor for each course. This gives you the freedom to select someone who understands your unique journey and can help you apply the theology you’re studying to your life and ministry.

A Learning Experience That Focuses on You

When you meet with your mentor, it’s not just about going over assignments. It’s about applying what you’re learning to your life. Your mentor takes time to understand your personal walk with Jesus and your ministry context, so the guidance you receive is always relevant and meaningful. These meetings are a space for you to talk openly about your challenges, ask questions, and get personalized feedback on how to grow in both your faith and your ministry.

Choose a Mentor Who Fits You

We understand that everyone’s journey is different, which is why you have the freedom to select your mentor for each course. This gives you the opportunity to find someone whose style, expertise, and approach resonate with you. Whether you’re looking for someone who challenges you, encourages you, or has experience in a specific area of ministry, you have the flexibility to choose someone who can support your unique needs and goals.

Qualified Mentors Who Care About You

Every mentor at Redemption is not only highly qualified but also deeply passionate about helping students grow. All of our mentors hold doctoral degrees, which means they have the knowledge and experience to guide you in your theological studies. But it’s not just about credentials—they genuinely care about your growth and want to see you succeed.

This personal connection is what makes Redemption different. You’re not just a number or a name in a classroom; you’re an individual with a unique story and calling, and our mentors are here to help you walk that path.

A Learning Experience That Puts You First

At Redemption, everything we do is designed to meet you where you are and help you grow at your own pace. We believe that education should feel like a partnership between you and your mentor, not a cookie-cutter experience. Our goal is to help you learn theology in a way that makes sense for you and your life.

If you’re ready for an education that’s personal, flexible, and focused on your growth, we invite you to explore what Redemption Seminary can offer. Let’s work together to deepen your understanding of God’s Word, strengthen your faith, and equip you for the ministry you’re called to.

Learn Theology Together: How Redemption Seminary Supports Group Study

Learn with Your Friends

Watch lectures and discuss readings at your own pace

Theological education doesn’t have to be a solitary journey. At Redemption Seminary, we believe learning is richer and more impactful when it’s done in your community. Whether you’re studying with friends, your small group, or your church, our programs and materials are designed to make group learning engaging and effective.

Learn and Grow with Your Friends

One of the best ways to deepen your understanding of theology is by discussing it with others. Redemption encourages you to watch our short, recorded lecture segments with friends and use the accompanying workbook questions to guide your conversations. These discussions allow everyone to share unique perspectives and apply theology to their own lives, creating an environment of mutual growth and encouragement.

Since the focus is on learning together, there’s no pressure for everyone to have the same answers. In fact, the diversity of insights makes the process even more meaningful. Your friends might notice something you missed, or you may help them see a passage in a new light. It’s a true team effort that benefits everyone involved.

Perfect for Small Groups and Church Communities

Redemption’s materials are ideal for small group Bible studies or discipleship meetings. The short lecture segments—typically just 15-20 minutes—fit easily into a group setting. A common format is to watch a few segments together and then spend 20-30 minutes discussing the content. The workbook questions provide excellent prompts to keep the conversation focused and engaging.

By incorporating Redemption’s lectures into your small group, you’re inviting recorded scholars to join your discussions. This brings a level of depth and structure that can transform your regular meetings into dynamic learning experiences. Even if only one person in the group is taking a course through Redemption this experience can encourage everyone. Whether your group is studying theology for personal growth or as part of a ministry initiative, Redemption’s resources can take your discussions to the next level.

Work at Your Own Pace—Together

One of the unique aspects of Redemption Seminary is its flexibility. You and your group can move through the materials at your own pace, spending extra time on topics that spark deeper interest or discussion. Some lecture segments may lead to longer conversations, while others may be quicker to absorb. The program is structured, but the timing is entirely up to you.

This flexibility is perfect for groups with varying schedules. Whether you meet weekly, bi-weekly, or even less frequently, you can tailor your study plan to fit everyone’s availability. And since the materials are always accessible, group members can revisit lectures and questions on their own time to deepen their understanding further.

A Low-Stress, Supportive Environment

At Redemption, learning is low-stress and supportive. Even grading is done in a conversational setting, where you receive personalized feedback and have the chance to refine your work. This same welcoming philosophy extends to group learning. You’re encouraged to ask questions, share ideas, and learn from one another without fear of “getting it wrong.”

Start Learning Together Today

Whether you’re looking to deepen your faith, build community, or pursue a degree in theology, Redemption Seminary makes it easy to learn with others. Our programs are designed to fit into your life and enhance your group’s study experience.

Have you ever wanted to deepen your understanding of theology but thought seminary was only for pastors and scholars?

For the Common Christian– Not Merely the Elite

The Bible was written for the ordinary person. The dialect of Greek used for the New Testament is called Koiné, which means “ordinary.” Likewise, Redemption Seminary is designed for ordinary adult Christians to consider at a serious level how the Bible applies to their life. It welcomes students who have plenty of room to grow both in mind and spirit. Through the mentoring and competency-based approach the instruction adapts to the student. This allows adult Christians who have not been eligible for traditional programs to have access to high-level training in a way that accommodates their life.

Some of the most prestigious schools boast of an exclusive learning experience reserved for less than 5% of the prospective students who apply. They have rigorous and competitive admission requirements to ensure that only the elite will ever don their regalia, peruse their special collections, wander their corridors, and benefit from ultimately influential relationships acquired during their program. One can understand the inherent benefit of only accepting the elite. They don’t require much assistance and are more likely to become elites in other aspects of society after they graduate. Having graduates scattered through influential positions throughout society brings all sorts of direct and residual benefits back to the institution. Although this approach makes strategic sense, it isn’t shaped by the gospel.

At its core, the gospel cherishes the image of God inherent in every person. It functions upon principles that value the weak over the institution. It doesn’t expect to change society through the positioning of a few influential elites, but expects to change society through the growth and love of redeemed hearts in every facet of society. The time tested practice of personal mentorship allows for a customized learning experience that can meet the needs of those challenged by the traditional system and satisfy the soaring expectations of the elite.

The open enrollment model for Redemption Seminary is based upon Jesus' open call for all to follow him. However, there is an appropriate time for different types of teaching. “When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.” (NIV 1 Cor 13:11) The graduate-level programs at Redemption seminary are designed for ordinary Christian adults, who now reason with experience gained from this stage of life. The straightforward admission process and initial steps in the curriculum are designed to ensure the program is a good fit for the student with minimal risk.
