🎙️ Get to Know Our Professors! 🎙️

We sat down with two of our faculty and asked them two questions: What are you currently studying, and what's one hobby you enjoy?

📖 Dr. James Fazio, Dean of Bible and Theology, has been part of the SCS family for over 20 years. He's a three-time SCS grad, holds a Ph.D. in History from Queen's University Belfast, and helped launch two schools in western Uganda.

📖 Dr. Cory Marsh, Professor of New Testament and Director of SCS Press, is a four-time SCS grad, host of the Pastor Scholar Podcast, and author of four books, including his newest, Recovering a Vintage Faith (2026).

You might be surprised by their answers! Watch the full video to find out.

Behind great education are great teachers. 🎓

Meet the SCS scholars who devote their lives to teaching God's Word and equipping the next generation of pastors, counselors, and leaders. Our faculty bring deep expertise across every field: Behavioral Sciences, New Testament and Old Testament, theology and church history, homiletics, intercultural studies, and Christian counseling. Even more, they bring a heart for their students.

At Southern California Seminary, you don't just learn from scholars. You're mentored by them.
