Why IBWWW?

We recognize the value and importance of traditional institutions, but unfortunately, for a lot of different reasons many of our leaders do not have the option of studying in one of our traditional institutions.

Many countries do not they have their own institutions nor do they have the resources to send students to a traditional Bible institute.  In order to answer this challenge, it was necessary to organize a system of theological education that could prepare the students where they are.

Our program of theological education for extension uses several options to  provide theological education for those who can not relocate to a formal institute or who can not study full-time to prepare themselves for ministry.

OBJECTIVES

Our objective is to prepare workers for the Lord’s service primarily in Latin America.  The program is designed to equip two levels of leadership:

  • A basic program for lay leaders so that they can prepare themselves for service in local churches.
  • A program to prepare pastors who wish to work toward ordination in the Wesleyan church.

METHODS

Currently there are two ways to study at IBWWW:

  • First, we offer courses on the internet.  The student can enroll in the courses and study online from home or at any internet café anywhere in the world.
     
  • Second, we offer courses in a printed book or correspondence form.  We are in the process of establishing regions where study by correspondence can be administered.

We have several other methods that are in development.
