College (Undergraduate) Programs

1 College (Undergraduate) Programs Summary of Undergraduate Programs The educational philosophy of every undergraduate program of TBBC is rooted in the fact that success in any area of life or ministry requires the application of an accurate knowledge and understanding of God and His design for all that exists. This knowledge and understanding comes only through an increasing comprehension and correlation of all the various aspects of God's revelation of Himself, especially those aspects expressed and preserved in the Scriptures, His written Word. Thus, every aspect of college life and instruction must remain in full accord with the criteria of God's design as delineated in the Scriptures. Upon this foundation, TBBC offers the following programs of undergraduate study.
