A Message from the President
Dear Prospective Student,
The mission of Guarded Heart Bible College is, with simplicity, to educate and equip ordinary individuals with skills and knowledge to promote and proclaim the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Administration and Faculty are committed to programs of study that are anchored in Scripture, committed to the established truths of historical evangelicalism and to meet the challenges and opportunities that come with guarding the heart.
It is my heart's passion to help people to not only have a deeper, but wider relationship with Jesus Christ. We are dedicated and determined to be centered and found faithful “to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.”
Yours in Christ,
