HSE² Curriculum

Biblical Training

The Bible states, “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only.” HSE² is designed to be a highly interactive and experiential learning environment. It is our belief that knowledge gained should be applied practically while developing new attitudes, habits and skills in a hands-on way. Each class will be taught by those who are actively living out their faith in ministry. Some of those teachers may include: Dr. Mike MacIntosh, Dr. Lu Wing, Dr. Chapin Marsh, Chaz Yandall, Brooks Fuller, Steve Gonzales, Phillip MacIntosh, Wayne Kinde, James Gordon and Jeff Kuhn.

Experiential Learning

HSE² Wilderness Trip

The purpose of the wilderness trip is to take students out of their normal environment in order to experience God in a fresh way, establish loving relationships with their classmates, take new steps of faith, and grow in their servant-leadership. Time spent hiking, cooking at bonfires, and engaging in powerful discussions and teachings makes this a dynamic and life-changing experience.

Practicum

Part of what makes HSE² such a unique and powerful discipleship experience is the opportunity to apply the Biblical lessons and principles that are learned throughout the course. The six-day practicum will provide the students with opportunities to put into practice the training they have received during the program in a new environment.

Local San Diego Outreaches

Local weekly outreaches allow students to participate in hands-on ministry on a weekly basis. These outreach opportunities expose students to a variety of ministries which include: sharing testimonies, passing out food to the poor, and street witnessing throughout the beach and downtown areas of San Diego.
