History
The Evangelical Philosophical Society (EPS) is considered a "sister society" to the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS). EPS was founded in 1974 at Dallas Theological Seminary when a group of scholars from ETS met at the ETS annual meeting in December 1974 to discuss concerns related to philosophy of religion. At this meeting, a steering committee was established to explore the idea of forming a new society to focus on philosophy. EPS was then officially organized at the ETS annual meeting in Philadelphia on December 28, 1976, with Norman Geisler serving as its first president. There were twenty charter members of the EPS. In 1978, EPS began publishing its own journal, the Bulletin of the Evangelical Philosophical Society, which was later renamed Philosophia Christi in 1994.

In 1998, plans were made to restructure the Evangelical Philosophical Society in several ways. Among these was lengthening the term of officers from one to three years and relaunching the EPS journal, Philosophia Christi, starting with "Series 2" in 1999.
