Welcome to Trinity Bible Institute

We are honored that you would consider Trinity Bible Institute (TBI) to further your Christian Education. The TBI program maintains a biblical foundation and is designed to teach students, through practical application, a deeper knowledge of God’s Holy Word. For years, our prayer has been to extend our On Campus Program to students outside our local community; and God’s timing and provision are now making this possible. The TBI On Campus Program has launched several satellite locations to help facilitate your education, in addition to our Home Campus. The TBI Online Program launched in the Fall of 2020. We are excited about new opportunities and look forward to our journey together for the cause of Christ.

If you prefer not to watch the full reading of the graduates’ names, we encourage you to at least take time to watch Pastor’s inspiring message:
“Trading Your Title for a Towel.” The message begins at 1:13:00 of the video. This powerful word speaks to the heart of servant leadership and what it truly means to follow Christ.
Congratulations, Class of 2025! May you walk forward boldly, with your hearts and hands ready to serve.

Hebron Baptist Church in Taylorsville, North Carolina under the leadership of Senior Pastor Dr. James Smith and West Stanly Baptist Church in Albemarle, North Carolina under the leadership of Senior Pastor Warren Brown.

Introducing...
TBI "Beyond Bars" Prison Ministry

The “Beyond Bars” Prison Ministry is taking the TBI educational program into the prison system to help men and women grow in their personal Christian walk, as well as to equip them to help minister to their family, friends, and others within the prison.

The first TBI prison satellite campus at the Kershaw Correctional Institution launched in June 2023. This is an all-male facility with approximately 1,500 inmates. TBI has the opportunity to bring a weekly TBI class into the prison (via video). Students follow the same weekly class and homework routine as the other TBI Satellite Campuses. Through the TBI “Beyond the Bars” Program we have been granted additional opportunities at the prison to preach and teach. Currently, over 300 men have been born again and over 100 have been baptized since the program began in June 2023.

We are so thankful for God’s goodness and for our faithful sponsors and prayer partners!

Your generosity and prayers are making a significant impact.

Prayerfully consider supporting the Beyond Bars Prison Ministry by becoming a…
  • Prayer Partner                             
  • Student Support Partner 
 For more information, please visit the Prison Educational Ministry page under Programs.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
