It is also approved by the Association of Christian Schools International

The institution has a ministry to the incarcerated in Indiana at various correctional facilities throughout the state directed by Dr. John Teevan.
==Grace Theological Seminary== The seminary enjoys a history that dates back to its 1937 organization by Alva J. McClain, the founder and first president. Its mission statement reads, "Grace Theological Seminary is a learning community dedicated to teaching, training, and transforming the whole person for local church and global ministry."
The seminary is a candidate for accreditation by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada.. The dean of the seminary is Dr. Jeff Gill.
