Associates Of Biblical Studies At A Glance

academics4 Our Associates in Arts are our 2nd Level courses designed to give students a strong biblical foundation along with practical experience in ministry. In addition to foundational bible classes, students will have the opportunity to serve in various areas in the church and ministry in our Service Internship, which will help them discover their gifts and calling.

Just As If

Virtual learning has bought the classroom to wherever you are. Besides eliminateing the need to travel, students who have small children and some who are caring for a loved one at home, have welcomed the opportunity to participate in the same time-tested systematic approach to teaching God's word that we've adhered to since 1946.

Whether your goal is to dig deeper into the Word of God for your own spiritual growth, or whether you would like pursue a degree for ministry, a new door has opened to you. We've Gone Virtual.

Raphael Newton

Graduate

I grew up Catholic, worshipped idols, and practiced a mixture of what is in the Bible and the church's teachings. Bethel Bible Institute taught me to believe and practice only what is written in Scripture and study it systematically. The Word of God says, "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman who needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."(2 Tim. 2:15 ). I now know that there is only one true and living God, and my Diploma in Bible Studies will enable me to win souls to Christ.

Beatrice Page

Student

I have attended Bethel Bible Institute over a course of 10 years starting out taking one class at a time simply with the desire of a systematic study of the Bible as a new believer. Since then I have progressed to obtaining my Bachelor's degree. BBI has given me a solid foundation in my knowledge of the Word which has challenged me to grow, to study purposefully, and to share the Word with others. Every course has been inspirational. Each professor offers a wealth of Biblical knowledge and insight to instruct, edify and engage the students.

New Student since 2020

Romans 12.2 (KJV) states, in part, “…but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, …”. Once you delight in the Lord, he will give you the desires of your heart (Psalms 37:4-ESV). I was seeking a way to study God's word…BBI. When the best bible school in town decided to use the ZOOM platform to spread GOD'S word…BBI. I desired to learn HIS word to be a better leader for the men’s ministry I am apart of…BBI.

It's never too late to go back to school. It has been 30+ years since I was in a classroom environment. In May 2023, I should be obtaining the Biblical Studies diploma. Just give GOD your YES and allow HIM to do the rest.

Andrea Barrett

Student

I have found BBI to be a source of blessing. It has allowed me to grow in the Word of God on a deeper level.

The teachers are not spoon feeding you but they challenge you to think, to not take things at the surface level, but to research what you are being taught , but most importantly, what does the Word of God say about that particular topic. I have learned not to be a careless listener, but BBI has also created in me an insatiable hunger to know God more and His love for us.

Christine Graves

Student

Since BBI is now online, it enables me to learn wherever I am. Attending BBI has increased my knowledge of God's Word. I've learned how the Old and New Testaments are connected, and iearning how to search the scriptures has increased my understanding more than I can say.

The instructors help bring the Bible to life by encouraging meaningful discussions that encourage thoughtful responses to the subject matter.
