A minimum of 225 hours each semester are spent in a variety of required activities designated to cultivate and mature each student in a godly fashion. Students must complete these components in each semester of their studies. Approximately 50% of the grade will be objective. The rest is subjective: evaluations by the Deans, Resident Assistants, other students and the student himself. The student is trained in the areas of quiet time, prayer, personal evangelism, testimonies, Sunday school lessons, and devotional talks. In the fall, the students are prepared for witnessing with weekend seminars by experienced evangelists. During the first half of the fall semester, the students are led on witnessing trips by the staff. The student body is then divided into several ministry groups: Choir, Open Air Evangelism, Local Church Ministries, Children's Ministry Teams, Spanish Outreaches, etc. This course provides a tool for the staff counselor and a measuring stick for the student to gauge his character as observed through the eyes of others. Included in these hours are quiet time (a personal time of intense Biblical reflection: 2.5 hours per week), devotions (observed recitation time: 1.5 hours per week), chapel (less formal lecture time addressing a wide range of current or pertinent issues: 2 hours per week), worship (structured services with student participation in various aspects of traditional worship services: 3 hours per week), work assignment (supervised training addressing market-place skills and attitudes: six to eight hours per week) and Scripture memory (recitation time testing the student's mastery of assigned verses).

Mission Statement
The mission of Word of Life Bible Institute is to educate each student within a rigorous academic and structured discipleship atmosphere preparing them to live a life of maximum effectiveness for the Lord
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.- 2 Timothy 3:16-17
Philosophy Statement
Word of Life Bible Institute as an educational institution has developed its entire program around a particular philosophy of education. This philosophy of education is based on three key words: Know (study) Grow (life), and Show (ministry). These three words characterize our approach to education.
Believers are commanded to study the Word of God, accepting it as their foundation and authority. Since discipleship and character building are the responsibility of godly leadership, we need to build an institution that will educate students in Biblical doctrine and conduct through the classroom and lifestyle of our staff. Our goal is to produce students that practice excellence in the Christian life bringing glory to God.
Principles
We believe that the Bible is not only the foundation for morality, but it is authoritative in every area that it addresses. It is therefore the beginning of wisdom and a prerequisite for any academic endeavor. - 2 Tim 2:15
We believe that any study of the Bible must be built on a proper relationship to Jesus Christ. - Col 2:6-7
We believe that intellectual "knowing" is only a beginning step, and that a student has not learned until he has put this knowledge into practice. - 2 Tim 2:1-2
We believe that character development is a legitimate concern of education. - Col. 1:9-11, 2:8-9; Titus 2:7-8
We believe that staff and faculty are more than teachers, they are role models and as such must display Christian character and commitment before the student. - Ezra 7:10, 1 Cor. 4:15-16; Matt. 28:19-20
We believe that doctrine is the foundation for all our endeavors. - 2 Tim. 3:16; Titus 2:1
Program
Word of Life Bible Institute is a two-year, non-degree granting institution whose high academic standards are recognized by most Christian colleges.
Whether the Lord leads a student to the mission field, the ministry, a trade, business, a profession, or any other field of endeavor, in the light of eternity, the most important issue is how effective that person is for the Lord.
Effectiveness in Christian service is measured by the influence that is exerted in the lives of other to lead them to Christ or to help them toward spiritual maturity.
The emphasis of the first year is Biblical Foundation. The emphasis of the second year is Ministry Foundation.
A diploma is awarded for the successful completion of two years, each of which is comprised of two academic semesters and a summer ministry. Students who complete the first year are also recognized at graduation with a Bible certificate.
Word of Life Bible Institute is accredited by the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (TRACS) which is a federally (USDE) recognized accrediting agency for Christian post secondary education. Word of Life Bible Institute is listed in the Accredited Institutions of Postsecondary Education Directory.
