Testimonials
“EBC offers a very rich learning experience for any potential Bible college student….I thoroughly recommend EBC to any student interested in knowing God more and being thoroughly equipped to serve Him.”
Thank you for the opportunity you have afforded us…to study and deepen our knowledge of God’s Word but not just in an intellectual context, in an awakening of our spirit to know and desire more of our God in relationship and discipleship.
I started with EBC because I wanted to deepen both my knowledge of, and my relationship with God – the course I am taking at EBC is fulfilling both of these. I am growing to know God, not just learn information about him so the benefit to me is huge. During every lecture, there is a wonderful revelation, which opens up my understanding of God and why I am at this point in my search to dig deeper.
Bible College is a total life experience affecting body, mind and soul, all with a view to preparing people effectively for various aspects of Christian ministry. EBC meets that challenge admirably. Studying at EBC will take you from where you are, develop what you already know and make you what God wants in order to serve Him in today’s world.
