Peace Theological Seminary & College of Philosophy

Peace Theological Seminary & College of Philosophy (PTS) was founded in 1977 by Dr. John-Roger with the mission of helping individuals learn the lessons of both the physical and spiritual worlds. The seminary offers an array of spiritual education programs, including Master of Spiritual Science and Doctor of Spiritual Science degrees, as well as various classes, workshops, and retreats that focus on Soul Transcendence, a process of becoming aware of oneself as a soul and connecting with the divine.

Programs range from shorter workshops and retreats to in-depth master's and doctoral degrees, aimed at developing leadership and consciousness in various aspects of life.

Specific tuition details can vary depending on the program, but PTS offers financial assistance and scholarship opportunities. Their flexible formats include self-paced, online, and hybrid courses, making the education accessible to a global student body.
Location
PTS is based in Los Angeles, California, but its programs are offered worldwide. Students can participate remotely or at retreats held across the U.S. and internationally.
Denomination
While rooted in the teachings of MSIA, PTS is non-denominational and welcomes students from all religious and spiritual backgrounds. The seminary encourages an inclusive approach to spiritual growth, focusing on the individual's journey toward greater love, compassion, and awareness.
