Equipping Saints, Transforming Lives, Empowering Ministry

New Life Biblical Institute is an entirely online institution offering Associate, Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate degrees in Biblical Studies, Christian Education, Christian Counseling, and Chaplaincy.

Our program is designed to provide a flexible, accessible education experience for students around the world. Through a blend of online courses and live virtual instruction, we use the Bible as the core foundation of learning. Our curriculum focuses on empowering students with a deep understanding of God’s Word and the life-changing power of the Holy Spirit, rather than emphasizing church history or doctrine. We aim to strengthen your faith and equip you for service in God’s kingdom.

Mission Statement

“To provide a Bible-centered education that equips believers with the knowledge and practical skills needed to serve in ministry, empowering them to fulfill their God-given calling.”

Vision Statement

“To become a leading online biblical institution that transforms lives through the power of God’s Word, preparing students for impactful ministry worldwide.”

Unique Learning Experience

Our online courses offer a robust curriculum tailored for each degree level, with additional material studies designed to deepen your understanding of scripture and ministry. The fully online format is ideal for those who cannot attend in-person classes, providing you with the flexibility to learn at your own pace from anywhere in the world.

For those who may not be well-versed in computers or online learning, we also offer correspondence courses for home study. These courses allow you to work at your own pace and complete your studies in a way that suits your learning style.

Curriculum Credibility

While New Life Biblical Institute is not yet accredited by a formal accrediting body, we are committed to delivering a high-quality, Bible-centered education. Our curriculum has been carefully designed by experienced educators and ministry leaders to ensure that each course provides a solid theological foundation, practical ministry skills, and spiritual growth. Many of our instructors bring years of pastoral and ministry experience to the table, ensuring that our teachings are grounded in real-world application.

We understand the importance of accreditation for some students, and we are actively working toward partnering with an accrediting institution in the future. However, the lack of accreditation does not diminish the value of the education we provide. Our focus is on equipping believers to fulfill their calling with excellence and biblical integrity.

At New Life Biblical Institute, we are passionate about partnering with you on your educational journey. Our mission is to equip the saints for ministry, helping each student maximize their gifts and prepare to serve wherever God leads. As you grow in your knowledge of the Bible, we believe your spiritual gifts will expand through our “expansion process,” which emphasizes the practical application of God’s Word in ministry.
