Baptist Bible College West
Our students will tell you that this is school where God's
love is shared among the administration, faculty, student body,
and staff.
This is also a place of higher learning, dedicated to preparing
men and women for ministry.
Our vision is to promote the Kingdom of God through an
excellence in equipping God's people for successful service in
His high and holy call.
Dear Prospective Student,
God is building His Kingdom, and He is gathering Kingdom
workers.
Our goal is to be a place where people who have felt the
touch of God on their lives can get ready for the greatest work
in the world. We are here to equip workers for the harvest.
If you want to study in an atmosphere of warm encouragement,
this is the place for you.
If you would like to learn more than theory and really get down
to the basics of what makes ministry work, this is the college
for you.
If your dream is to sit in classes taught by men and women
who are highly trained and equally skilled in their ministries
and professions, this is the school for you.
If God has called you, we are here to serve you. Ministry
is our business and our only business.

Baptist Bible College West
Our Purpose
The purpose of Baptist Bible College West is to contribute
to the Great Commission by providing a baccalaureate degree
program with Pastoral, Missions, and Worship Leader
concentrations to those people who wish to prepare for ministry
positions.
Regardless of the concentration they select, students
preparing for ministry will acquire a body of knowledge that is
both appropriate to Christian higher education, and intended to
equip them for the ministry roles they have chosen.
The baccalaureate program is designed to develop students'
spiritual, professional, and social values, in addition to their
intellectual, analytical, and critical abilities.
