    Why study with us?

    Sound teaching for believers of every church — for everyone who wants to grow spiritually, and everyone who serves or hopes to serve in ministry. Simple online Bible training that comes to your home.

    Taught in your mother tongue

    Lessons in Tamil, so you understand fully and can learn theology simply and well in your own language.

    Audio-first lessons

    Lectures are recorded as audio — no Zoom classes. Listen on your phone, while travelling, or whenever suits you — no fast connection required.

    Trained professors in ministry

    Faculty who serve in ministry themselves. Their experience and theological approach build you up in Bible knowledge, spiritual growth and ministry, and as a leader.

    Very low monthly fees

    Concessions for ministers who cannot afford the fees. Pay easily online, study from home without travelling, and take your exams when it suits you.

    A simple exam system

    Listen to each unit of a course, then answer ten multiple-choice questions. Marks are recorded unit by unit, and the course mark is the total across all its units.

    Study at your pace

    No fixed exam timetable. Take each unit’s short test whenever you like within the month, and we remember where you stopped so you can carry on from there.

    Everything you need to study

    PDF textbooks, audio lessons that explain them, and access to books in our online library.

    Certificate on completion

    As a missionary, I could not go away to study at a Bible college in person. I wanted to, but put it off for years. Because this is an online Bible college, I have now completed my studies well and continue in ministry.
