The Southern Episcopal Church (SEC) is an Anglican Christian denomination established in Nashville, Tennessee in 1953,^[1] and formally organised in 1962, in reaction to liberal political and theological trends within the Episcopal Church USA.^[2]^[3] It is connected to the Continuing Anglican movement, although it was formed more than a decade before the movement began.^[4]

The SEC does not consider itself a new denomination, but rather as providing a church home for Episcopalians who wished to maintain their Anglican faith and tradition.^[3] It uses the 1928 Book of Common Prayer for its liturgy.^[1]^[3]^[5]

The leader of the initial group was Burnice Hoyle Webster, a medical doctor who became presiding bishop.^[6] The current presiding bishop is William Martin Sloane.^[7]

The SEC has one seminary, the Holy Trinity College and Seminary, which offers classes by distance studies.^[8]
