Current Scholarships
The Rhoads Scholarship is named in honor of Dr. Ross Rhoads, the co–founder and first president of SES. He was an evangelist, pastor, author, educator, and Christian leader who devoted his life to winning souls for Christ. The scholarship provides tuition assistance to qualified SES students. Ross Rhoads made an immeasurable and lasting impact for the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. For years to come, The Rhoads Scholarship will preserve his legacy and help to effectively train others who share his world–sized vision to evangelize the lost and equip the Church.
The Norman L. Geisler Memorial Scholarship is named for SES co-founder and President Emeritus Dr. Norman Geisler in order to help continue Dr. Geisler’s legacy of evangelizing the world and defending the Faith. This fund allows for the possibility of tuition assistance based on the need presented and the discretion of SES.
The Josh McDowell Scholarship Fund is named for Josh McDowell to honor his commitment to the Christian principles and character that have defined his life. SES desires to carry on the legacy of this hero of the Christian faith who has so well personified the apologetics life – commending and defending the truth of Christianity.
The Hugh Ross Scholarship in Scientific Apologetics is named for Dr. Hugh Ross in honor of his commitment to the principles of evangelism and apologetics that have defined his life. Dr. Ross, as an astronomer and pastor, focuses his ministry on harnessing the power of science for evangelism. Founding Reasons To Believe in 1986, Dr. Ross’ desire to communicate that science and faith are, and always will be, allies, not enemies is the basis for RTB’s outreach efforts. He proclaims this message by writing books, recording podcasts, and speaking in many venues. Dr. Ross engages skeptics and equips believers with powerful reasons to believe in the God of the Bible as the Creator and Savior.
