A Word from Our President
1 Chronicles 12 describes mighty men who joined David when he was running from King Saul. Among those mighty men stood the children of Issachar. They understood the times in which they lived and knew what Israel ought to do. Today, there is a desperate need for believers who understand the Bible and the times they live in. Free Gospel Bible Institute is a place where young people can draw close to God, learn the word of God, think deeply about Scripture and the world they live in, and return into the world empowered by the Spirit of God. Explore what we have to offer and follow God’s will for your life. We pray you consider joining our student body soon.
