Bachelor of Biblical Studies
BCFK is non-denominational by design: the curriculum does not flatten two thousand years of Christian thought into a single party line. Students read primary sources — Scripture, fathers, reformers, and philosophers — and form their own informed convictions under mentor guidance.
The program includes more than 210,000 pages of required reading, thousands of assessment questions, and over 800 pages of original student research documented in Society of Biblical Literature (SBL) citation style.
