New Brunswick Bible Institute

“Thoughts of warm summer nights by the campfire, visions of strolling across the beach and dreams of completing a number of stagnated projects piled high on my desk have swept across my calendar like a speeding, consuming tornado, swallowing up my summer and spitting it out into a new calendar quarter called Fall.” So starts the 33rd chapter in the book called, “Life as a staff member” by Larry D. Rushton.

Summer has slipped by and another year of ministry to our students has begun. Our role again has switched from praying for our students to participating in their ongoing training and in the development of their spiritual growth. What a responsibility! What an awesome privilege! Read More

In this early publication drafted by our founding fathers in 1945 we read this purpose statement. Read More

This is when our second annual Ladies’ Retreat will be held here on the beautiful campus of New Brunswick Bible Institute! We are pleased to let you know that Mrs. Linda Reed from Ottawa, Ontario will be our speaker this year. Linda is the wife of Pastor Rick Reed of the Metropolitan Bible Church. We look forward to hearing what the Lord lays on her heart concerning our theme, “Abundant Joy.” Sarah Jane Bishop will be ministering to our hearts through music. We are excited to have these women come and share with us for this very special weekend. Please plan to join us and bring along your friends.
