Our Vision

The vision of Great Lakes Bible College is to be a viable institute for Biblical learning and training, equipping the church for spiritual ministry, leadership and service; primarily serving churches of Christ throughout Canada and the northern United States, in addition to providing workers for the Kingdom worldwide.

Our Mission

The mission of Great Lakes Bible College is to provide a university level program of Bible education to prepare its students for effective spiritual living, Christian service, leadership, and world evangelism.

Our Values

• The life-long pursuit of serious Bible study that leads to godly living.
• A broad-based curriculum that promotes faith development, personal maturity, and Christian commitment.
• Enabling students to find their place of Christian service, informed by the past, and challenged by the future. We seek to do that in an environment that honors God.
• Motivated by the great commission, "to disciple the nations" we prepare students to share the Good News of the Gospel in a way that our culture will understand and embrace.

Our Integrated Learning Model

Our integrated learning model strives to be a holistic approach to learning. If we are to love the Lord with our whole being (Deuteronomy 6:5), then we need an approach to learning that seeks to shape our thoughts and actions toward service.

• The Bible is our foundation of learning (Psalm 119:97).
• We are all ministers (Ephesians 4:12; | Peter 2:9) and we want to help equip our students for their ministries by walking, shaping and releasing them as servant leaders in the church and in the world.
• Developing a Christian worldview is essential to Christian service (Romans I2:1-2).

We have been given the mission to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:18-20). Jesus final command is our first priority and we need to be a people focused on the Word and engaged in ministry. In addition, a Christian worldview is shaped by and shapes both our understanding of God's word and our work of ministry.
