Why Choose Providence?

A Balanced Life

Too often, service is substituted for spirituality. Providence stresses a balance of the two. Every class and service opportunity will teach you to work hard, but your personal walk with God will be equally emphasized.

Actively Serving Faculty

Currently-serving pastors, associate pastors, evangelists, and missionaries teach most of our Bible classes and all of our Church Education classes. Learning from these successful, proven men of God provides a sense of “relevancy” and excitement.

Friendly and Personable Staff

Instead of "just being another number", you will have close communication with the staff & faculty and come to personally know some of the most successful pastors in America.

Experience in the Ministry

You'll be directly involved in the ministries of Northwest Bible Baptist Church, the red-hot, growing church out of which Providence is based.

New Facilities & Location

Tripling its space, Providence just moved to a former Best Western hotel in Elgin, just 15 minutes from Northwest Bible Baptist Church. Get a glimpse of the new campus with our Virtual Campus Tour.

Competitive Costs

It's our goal to make sure all costs have the greatest possible return to you. As a result, the costs at Providence are among the competitive with other similar Baptist colleges in America.
