Since 1971, the East Tennessee School of Preaching and Missions has been training faithful men to go into the world and preach the gospel. Although our name has changed, the Southeast Institute of Biblical Studies (SEIBS) continues that commitment based on the vision of the Karns elders over fifty years ago.

Why Choose Southeast

Where Preachers Are Made

The East Tennessee School of Preaching and Missions began in February 1971 as a work of the Karns church of Christ. The school was designed to give mature, capable men with a desire to preach the gospel a thorough course of study that would provide a solid Biblical foundation on which to help bring the lost to Christ and encourage the saved to stay faithful.
