Nebraska Christian College From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Nebraska Christian College is an accredited baccalaureate college of the Association for Biblical Higher Education, located in Papillion, Nebraska. Nebraska Christian College offers a Bible-based education to prepare people for service and ministry. The college is affiliated with the Independent Christian Churches/Churches of Christ.

History

In October 1944, fifteen people met in Wymore, Nebraska to discuss establishing a Bible college for northeastern Nebraska. Norfolk, Nebraska was chosen as the site in order to leverage the existing Norfolk Junior College for general education classes. The goal was to teach and train young people to serve Christian churches.

The college's stated objectives, according to their website, include preparing students for Christian church staff and ministry positions, preparing missionaries, developing leaders and staff for church related organizations (schools, camps, nursing homes, etc.) and preparing students for life-long learning. The motto of the college is "know Christ and make him known."

In August 2006, Nebraska Christian College students began attending their first classes on the new Omaha campus. Nebraska Christian College has been raising money over many years to move the campus to the Omaha metro and this goal has been accomplished.

Advocacy

Nebraska Christian College advocates for the absolute authority of the Bible, the autonomy of the individual local church government, weekly celebration of the Lord's Supper and that people today should work to fulfill the Great Commission as stated in the Bible.
