Our Mission is:
"Establishing students in the eternal and inerrant Word of God for a life of faith in Jesus Christ and faithful service in His Kingdom."
This means we equip students to
understand
Scripture for themselves,
grow
in their understanding of the Gospel,
navigate
the culture with a biblical worldview, and make a difference in their family, community, and local congregation. We believe this is accomplished best through a holistic educational approach that includes academic
study
, intentional
community
, and ministry
experience
.

"Not only did God use my time at FLBC to place
missions
on my heart, He used it to help me be firmly grounded in His Word. I’m grateful for all the lessons I learned while at FLBC, from learning how to study the Bible,
prepare Bible studies
or Sunday School lessons, or even
audio production
from my time as a sound tech for the worship team. FLBC really helped equip me for this ministry [KAKN Radio in Naknek, Alaska]."
—Maggie Johnson, Class of 2021
"FLBC classes gave me a deep love for
theology
. I was encouraged by faculty, who were always willing to discuss theology both in and out of class. They grew to be close friends of mine and
continue to support me
as I work in the church and pursue higher theological education."
—Sophia Lucht, Class of 2025
“
God’s love
is so evident at FLBC. The light of Jesus shines through the professors, coaches, students, and staff, and it is such a blessing to be in this environment which is preparing me for a life of service in God’s kingdom no matter where I may go. Through
basketball
, community activities, and each class, I am learning what it means to be a true follower of Christ.”
—Gracia Rolf, Class of 2025
"I left high school with plans to be a
teacher
. Through my time at the Bible College, God shifted my focus to full-time
student ministry
. Not only did I make incredible friends, but I became better equipped to study God's Word and to teach it to others."
—Daniel Hurner, Pastor of Youth
and Family Ministries
“At the beginning of the year, I was unsure of why I was here. At the end of the year, I was amazed to see how God had answered all my prayers. God knew the areas in my life I needed to grow my faith and
He grew me
—It was not me. When I came to FLBC, I felt that my relationship with God was just a personal matter. Now I see that I want to invest in the church and be a
member of the body of Christ
, because it is such a gift.”
—Magdelena Grotberg, Class of 2023
"FLBC is where my faith became much more
personal
. My time at FLBC encouraged me to go into any vocation with a
ministry mindset
—whether at work or at home I can share the love of Christ with others.”
—Stephen Quanbeck, Class of 2011
"I didn't just learn during my time at FLBC, I was also intentionally cared for, invested in by my professors, and equipped for a life of continual growth and learning through His Word. As I graduated, I realized that you never outgrow God's grace and that His mercies are truly new every morning. I left knowing in whom my identity lies, where to run to for truth, and who I can trust in all life's situations and circumstances."
—Janay Gray, Class of 2023
