EXCEL BIBLE INSTITUTE
Your Journey Starts Here
Welcome to ExCEL Bible Institute. I am very pleased that you have expressed an interest in a greater knowledge and understanding of the Word of God and more about applying Biblical principles in each area of Kingdom service God has called you to. These courses will also explore the hidden treasures of Business, Leadership, Education, Stewardship and Technology (BLEST). Here at EBI, we want you to know that Biblical education is the key to your life and ministry success.
ExCEL Bible Institute was founded for the purpose of making good, Bible-based education available to pastors and Christian workers who are not at liberty to leave their churches or jobs to attend a typical resident college.
EBI is on the cutting edge of contemporary Biblical Education. We understand that gaining an education can be very daunting, and to help relieve some of that stress, we strive to afford each student with personal and intimate contact with staff members. We have online programs to aide you in getting the support you need.
“Educating the world to save the world, is more than just a motto, it is our calling.”
An EBI education can happen in two parts. One part involves our current Course Schedule. Students work the assignments and participate in scheduled follow up sessions with a member of our faculty. The second, is where students work at their own pace, and submit their assignments through the EBI portal for evaluation with minimal interaction with faculty. These students are identified as those who register for courses that are not listed on the Course Schedule list. For updated information on which courses apply, please consult the “Course Schedule” listed in the “Academic Programs” menu.
A degree from ExCEL Bible Institute does not come easily. It is true that nothing worthwhile comes easily. You will be required to work hard and discipline yourself to earn a coveted degree from EBI.
When you have completed the required course work you will have gained knowledge and wisdom in the truths of the Word. You will be better equipped to carry out the commission the Lord has given you.
Also, once you have completed your studies, you may choose to come to our beautiful campus in Hampton, Virginia where each year we hold a graduation ceremony and celebration in honor of your academic acheivements.
As you journey with us in this pursuit of a greater knowledge and understanding of the Word of God, I hope that it is apparent that we are serious about helping you reach that goal. Our classes are numerous and they are not the easiest, but we are proud to offer them. Our school was birthed by individuals who possess both the academic and professional experience in ministry and leadership. We are strong in our belief that by giving people a more solid foundation of Biblical Education, they will be more equipped to go through the world and spread God’s Word.

CF505 – Bible Introduction 101 The aim of this course is to start with the proposition that belief,
or indeed unbelief, cannot be exercised unless there is comprehension of the
truth of the Bible. This course will teach the student the truth about the
Bible in a summary manner and learn its anatomy and the truth contained in
Scripture.

CF504 – How We Got Our Bible Most Christians understand that the Bible they hold in their hands
is the inspired Word of God. Yet very few have a general understanding of the
origin of the Bible. The purpose of this class, therefore, is to show the
student how the Bible came to be and why it can be accepted as the unerring,
authoritative Word of God.
