Time is flying by fast! By the time you read this article, the Fall 2025 semester at the BMA Seminary in Jacksonville, TX, will be nearing completion or already completed. That means we are getting geared up for a brand-new Spring 2026 semester. In addition to the typical three-credit-hour courses we offer for degree seekers and non-degree seekers alike, we will be offering one-credit-hour courses that will be one-third of the price of our regular classes. For just $325 (plus a small library and online fee), you can earn one-credit hour at the seminary. These mini courses will only require about 4-5 weeks of your time!
 
These classes are designed for those who might want information about a particular topic but do not have the time to invest in a 15-week course. You might be a pastor or Sunday school teacher wishing to enhance your knowledge in a specific area. You might be a believer wanting to learn more about the Bible, missions, or counseling. Below is a list of the one-credit-hour courses that will be offered in the Spring 2026 semester:
 
  • Introduction to Missions and Cross-Cultural Church Planting
  • Paul’s major letters (Romans; 1 & 2 Corinthians; Galatians)
  • The General Epistles (Hebrews; James; 1 & 2 Peter; 1—3 John)
  • Poetic Books of the Old Testament
  • Inductive Bible Study
  • Biblical Understanding of Prayer
  • Biblical Understanding of Worship
  • Biblical Crisis Counseling and Intervention
 
We also offer a free class every Spring and Fall semester. The free class for Spring 2026 will be focused on evangelism. This course will emphasize two things: (1) understanding what the gospel is and (2) learning how to share its truth. Those taking the course who may not yet be saved will definitely hear the gospel. Those who are already saved and interested in learning how to share the gospel will observe a clear, reproducible presentation of the gospel.
 
If any of the above topics interest you, give us a call at 903-586-2501 or email your inquiries at [email protected]. Those desiring to engage with the free course can fill out an inquiry at https://bmats.edu/free/. We would love to hear from you!
