to train students in the Bible, enabling them to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (II Peter 3:18), who Himself is full of grace and truth (John 1:14). 

CCBI is a partnership of Grace Bible Church and The Master's College, a four year, fully accredited, Christian liberal arts college located in Santa Clarita, California.  In addition to Bible training, an opportunity is presented to earn a Certificate in Biblical Studies (CBS) by completing 30 units in courses such as Old Testament and New Testament Survey, theology, Biblical counseling, and specified practical Christian living electives.  This study program is the equivalent of a college level minor in Biblical Studies.  Further, for those students who desire to continue their college education, appropriate courses from an accredited junior college such as Cuesta or Hancock may be combined with the CBS to result in two full years of college credits.  Upon acceptance of these college units at The Master's College, the student may complete a four year bachelors degree in about two years.
