School of the
Bible & Ministry

WSBM exists to equip God's people – head, heart, and hands – through the Word of God, helping them know Jesus Christ personally and carry on his ministry.

Courses at WSBM are biblical and practical, drawing us closer to God and leading us out to our communities in love. We strive to be people of ministry both inside and outside the church family.

The psalmist said, “The entrance of your words gives light” (Ps. 119:130). Come have your heart enlightened and discover how God has designed you to be light and hope in the world.
