Curious Believers

Anchor Theological Seminary and Bible Institute (ATS&BI) subscribes to a non-traditional form of study programs, following a non-traditional plan in comparison to the general method utilized for study of general subject matter.

ATS&BI primarily uses an external type of delivery system for its study prog rams. The distance learning methodology allows the school to be wherever the student is located...a school without walls. 

The student is encouraged by the very nature of the inductive and deductive study methods employed to exercise as

much independent study as possible. The objective is to assist a person wanting to study the Bible in applying and living by the precious Word of God. The administration, faculty and Trustees all hold to a high view of and commitment to Holy Scripture. When you have your Bible with you, you have the

seminary with you. While no one will be excluded from study of the Bible who genuinely desires it and honestly pursues it, the school has absolutely no interest in, and will not be a party to, simply issuing diplomas while utilizing

inferior study programs. The school shall make every attempt to understand and work with the student, recognizing that the bulk of communications will be via letters, the telephone, or email. ATSBI reserves the right to function according to its mission statement in its requests concerning the student’s work and

the quality control that is maintained and strived for in programs of study issued.

ATS&BI desires to make it possible for any serious Christian to study with a Bible Institute and/or Seminary. This program of studies will allow the student to conscientiously study the Bible for their personal spiritual growth with an enlarged capacity to share the understanding gained. We work at

ministering to the layperson’s interests and needs as well as the pastor, evangelist, missionary and other

recognized church leadership.

This method of individualized study has always been endorsed by the Scripture and the time has come for

its implementation for many who want and need this type of disciplined work. The restoring of then necessary foundations for a healthy and productive life personally, in our families and in our churches, requires serious study of the Scriptures and obedience to them.

The Trustees and the leadership of the school are committed to this purpose and mission. It is a labor of love for the Lord Jesus Christ, His Word and His church to provide this ministry.

“Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.” 2 Timothy 2:1-2
