Frequently asked questions
Is the Living Word Bible School Accredited?
Accreditation is a 10-year, several thousand dollar venture that adds no real value to your education. The Living Word Bible School has decided not to pursue accreditation in order to offer more affordable education. We desire for our "accreditation" to come from the success of our students in their field of ministry.

Every denomination has its own criteria for ordaining or hiring new pastors, but YES, the Living Word Bible School offers the biblical education and training necessary for full-time ministry, as a pastor, ministry leader, or missionary.
