Berean Bible College, in an effort to achieve its objective of offering a balanced Christian education, offers four Major courses of study: Ministerial, Missionary, Biblical Counseling, and Christian Education. These specific disciplines have specialized courses to more thoroughly equip the student in each field. Its aim is to further develop biblical study and theological skills, encourage spiritual growth and
strengthen practical abilities needed for serving Christ and His Church at home and abroad.
We recognize that a degree or a diploma does not necessarily produce a ministry. Our primary purpose is not to issue degrees and diplomas, but to assist individuals in
developing their God-given talents. The degrees and diplomas recognize systematic preparation, and are not in themselves qualifications for ministry. Therefore, Berean Bible College does not ordain, license or offer placement assistance to graduates.
