About the Bible School...
The Fort Lauderdale Open Bible Institute began in 1996 with a mission to equip Believers of Jesus Christ for various aspects of Christian ministry, including pastoral leadership, lay ministry, and the mission field. In addition, the Bible Institute serves as a fertile ground for Believers who desire to grow in their own knowledge and application of the Word of God.
With that singularity of focus, the Fort Lauderdale Open Bible Institute has graduated Pastors, Evangelists, Missionaries, Teachers and other Christian Workers.
We continue to do this work today! The Bible Institute is open to anyone who desires to attend and we invite you to join this very vital part of the church’s outreach to the community. The courses are listed below and are being currently taught virtually. The completion of the courses leads to a certification from INSTE Global Bible College.
Courses Offered
