| Meet Our Faculty |
It has been said that carpenters train carpenters, plumbers train plumbers, and electricians train electricians, but professors train preachers. At the Bible Institute of Ohio, it is preachers who train preachers. The practical benefits should be obvious. Not only do the teaching pastors know the needs of the ministry, they also have a pastor's heart in their dealings with the students. We believe this is a great combination worthy of your interest.
God has given us an excellent faculty. Many of our faculty over the years have had Masters Degrees and most of them have served as pastors of fundamental churches either in past years or at the present time. They bring to the classroom the practical side of their teaching ministry.
There is also a broad spread of ages among the faculty. There are older men with the long years of experience and there are the younger men who spark the enthusiasm and school spirit, creating a good mix for the student body. In convictions and purpose, there is unity in the presentation of the excellent courses of study. These are the elements which make the Bible Institute of Ohio.
