Contender's Bible School Information
We offer a tuition free Bible education at the college level.
Contender's Bible School equips men and women for ministry through an aggressive two-year program of Biblical and ministry-related subjects. Because of its compact course nature, disciplined outside study is required. Due to the difficulty of course work those who graduate will have learned disciplined study habits. Students are taught that Contender's Bible school is only the beginning of what is to be a life-long pursuit of Biblical and Ministry related education. We give them the two most important tools: a strong desire to learn and the experience that disciplined study produces learning.
In addition to the material that students learn through course work, a program of practical Christian Ministry is also offered that gives students hands on experience in every facet of church ministry from children's ministries to pulpit preaching.
Many of our graduates are in full time Christian Ministry both as Pastors and as Youth Pastors. Others are serving effectively in their home churches. We are especially interested in training Missionary Pastors to serve with Village Missions.
Contenders has been officially endorsed by the Board of Village Missions for developing Village Missionaries. We are eager to 'export' this leadership training model to other churches to help them equip the Saints to do the work of the ministry.

Classes are held Monday and Thursday evenings from 7 to 9p.
