Come. Know. Grow. Go.
Want more than lectures and head knowledge?
Grow closer to God. Understand the Bible. Be personally mentored. Learn alongside people who are serious about following Him by faith.
Serious biblical training inside and outside the classroom, preparing you to follow wherever He leads.
What is TMBC?
Think Jesus and the disciples.
Think of an itinerant rabbi and twelve men. Think of a moving Bible college. There is a real classroom, but the training does not end when the class does.
Students open the Bible and see things they have never seen before. They learn to know God personally, understand grace and the Finished Work of Calvary, ask teachers questions inside and outside class, build deep relationships, share their faith, and participate in local and world missions.
TMBC is designed to be inspiring rather than merely informational. Read why the college exists.
“I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace…”
Acts 20:32
Purposeful. Biblical. Practical.
A life in the Word, not merely information about it
The Bible Says
Classes are filled with Scripture, context, categorical doctrine, definitions, and careful interpretation. The recurring question is: What does the Bible say?
Grace-Oriented
Truth is taught in the character of God’s grace and in view of the Finished Work of Calvary. Students learn from a place of faith and rest, not condemnation or striving.
Inside and Outside
Teachers impart more than lectures. Training includes local church life, fellowship, mentorship, prayer, evangelism, outreach, practical ministry, and missions.
One college. Two live teaching locations.

Who is TMBC for?
Not only future foreign missionaries
TMBC has a strong missionary emphasis, but it is not only for people who expect to serve overseas full-time. It is for men and women, younger and older adults, working and full-time students, new believers and mature believers, and students from TMBC-connected churches or other local churches.
Some students arrive certain that God is leading them toward pastoral ministry, missions, church planting, or another particular calling. Others simply say, “I want to know God and become grounded in His Word.” That is a good place to begin.
A missionary life can be lived as a pastor, parent, businessperson, student, church member, bivocational servant, or foreign missionary. TMBC does not decide God’s calling for a student. It helps students know God, know His Word, and become prepared to follow wherever He leads.
A four-year journey
A foundation for a lifetime
Students move from introductory courses and broad Bible surveys into doctrine, leadership, missions, evangelism, whole-book studies, slow exegesis, Greek and Hebrew tools, and practical training. Four years does not mean a student has arrived. It provides a frame of reference and tools for a lifetime of knowing God and studying His Word.
