reSource is currently partnering with four schools in East Asia:


ATS, Asian Theological Seminary
Quezon City, Philippines

The Asian Theological Seminary began thirty years ago with two professors and only a few students. Today ATS is the largest graduate-level, interdenominational seminary in Southeast Asia. ATS is located in Quezon City, Philippines. ATS encourages their many international students to return to their home countries, contributing to the goal of strengthening the leadership of the rapidly growing Asian church. Recognizing that lay ministry is crucial, ATS continues to train Christians for all areas of society, particularly in the workplace and the community.

BSOP, Bible School of the Philippines
Karuhatan, Valenzuela, Bulacan

The Biblical Seminary of the Philippines (BSOP) was established on June 15, 1957 as the Bible Institute of the Philippines (BIOP). In 1975, the Board of Trustees decided to upgrade the academic level of BIOP to a seminary, changing the name to BSOP. In addition to training matriculated students in degree and certificate programs, BSOP also trains lay people through a variety of special programs. These include CMTC, TEE, conference ministry, and special summer classes in provincial churches. More recently, BSOP has provided special modules for Christian day-school teachers and staff.
