Mission Statement
Biblical Life Institute is a school of biblical higher education that prepares students for faithful Christian thought and life in order to transform lives and build the Kingdom of God.
Philosophy of Education
Biblical Life Institute is a community of learners committed to educating the whole person within a Christ-centered learning environment. BLI embraces the collaborative and complex nature of learning, so we embrace biblical higher education that occurs through engagement in a rigorous academic curriculum, meaningful co-curricular experiences between faculty, staff, and students, and various ministry formation experiences all designed to develop effective witnesses and servants for the Kingdom of God.
In seeking to prepare students for a faithful life of christian service, BLI expects students to participate in practical ministry formation experiences through involvement in the local church, civic engagement, and capstone courses with concentration specific internships.
All of our students, regardless of where they find themselves when they come to BLI; deserve a christ-like, caring, creative, professional, and engaged faculty and staff that helps them cultivate a passion for lifelong learning and service. Students are encouraged in their studies to develop critical thinking skills, while seeking to understand and appreciate a wide array of theological perspectives.
The impact of a BLI education is significant because it is deeply transformative. Students acquire new habits of mind and heart in their educational experiences at BLI that they will take with them after graduation in order to live a life of obedience in service to God, the church, and their community.
