Transcript of Ministry Preparation... 50 years ago... In the summer of 1964 at the General Assembly of the Church...
Ministry Preparation . . .
• 50 years ago . . . In the summer of 1964 at the General Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene, held in Portland, Oregon, General Superintendent G.B. Williamson presented the vision for the Nazarene Bible College.
The Vision Lives . . .
. . . The General Assembly
voted Dr. Williamson’s vision
into reality. Leaders in our
church expedited selection of a site and the first students were enrolled in the fall of 1967.
Mission with a Purpose
. . . Nazarene Bible
College exists to glorify
Jesus Christ as Lord by
preparing adults to evangelize, disciple,
and minister to the world.
Our College . . .
. . .views truth through
the Wesleyan-Holiness
perspective and affirms the
Bible as its cornerstone. We emphasize
the doctrine of entire sanctification and
living a holy, Christlike life.
NBC Serves the Church
• Founded and sponsored by the Church of the Nazarene, our college has a unique place among the institutions of higher learning in our denomination.
• Ministerial preparation is our priority.
• We are committed to academic
excellence.
The Support of our Church . . .
. . . Reduces the cost of education at NBC. Without the help of the Church, the cost of ministry preparation would increase by nearly 40%.
•Your financial help will be a continuing encouragement to God’s
called ones.
