Jeff Lindsey - 2025
"Influencers Bible College was so worth it. It has expanded my understanding of the Bible. It helped me understand how all the books fit together to tell the whole story/purpose of Jesus from Genesis to Revelation. Plus, it has helped me gain greater confidence in sharing the Gospel with others. The instructors are knowledgeable, encouraging and passionate about sharing God’s word and equipping the body of Christ to reach the unsaved."
Jane Richards - 2025
“Influencers Bible College has been a place of power and preparation. I came here to study theology, but I discovered much more — a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit and a new authority to teach and reach others for Christ. This college has helped me understand that when we seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, everything else follows. It has equipped me to lead like Jesus, to bring others into His Kingdom, and to continue growing year after year. My tomorrow is secure because of what God began in me here.”
Joseph Shumbusho - 2025
