international bible training college (ibti)
Our purpose is to advance the Kingdom of God through training and teaching
people from all over the world.
CORE VALUES
Community
As a residential, cross-cultural community we provide a framework for growth in
all areas and encourage the students to be Christlike. While fellowship between
students and staff creates a close mentoring and nurturing environment.
Christ Centered
Jesus’ leadership was characterised by service as well as integrity, excellence,
faith, hope and love, so we don’t just teach them to preach about Him but to
imitate him and develop a servant attitude too.
Connected
We have always been aware of and responded to the needs of the nations and these
international connections ensure that we continue to network with missions
worldwide. While the students’ involvement in local churches gives opportunities
to form connections within the UK.
Complete
The school believes that the key to preparing the next generation for effective
ministry is a programme with a good academic curriculum taught by passionate,
experienced and competent lecturers together with a strong vocational component,
so this is our holistic approach.
VISION & GOALS
The IBTC’s vision is to empower a young generation to effectively function in
Christian service. This vision is accomplished by welcoming students from many
parts of the world, training them into mission back home and abroad.
THROUGH OUR TRAINING WE ARE COMMITTED TO HELPING THEM:
* Discover their vocation if they have not yet done so.
* Define their already present vocation in areas where they lack understanding.
* Develop their vocation and their gifts.
THROUGH THEIR TRAINING THEY WILL BE ABLE TO:
* Create a culture of learning by supporting local churches and other Christian
vocational schools and organisations worldwide.
* Evangelise throughout the world through missionary trips, community projects,
discipleship programmes etc.
* Relieve poverty across the world by meeting people’s needs in a holistic way.
