“There is no experience in my life that structured my identity as an Apostolic more than Indiana Bible College. At Indiana Bible College my talents were developed, my grasp on Apostolic doctrine was strengthened, and my passion for the kingdom was established. As a student my ministry became a reality, and now my reality is ministry.”
Abigail Ballestero | IBC Class of 2021
“Indiana Bible College changed my life. I accepted the call to attend, which God had undeniably placed on my life, and I’ve never been the same. I attended for four years and it was challenging in many ways – spiritually, academically, socially. Those fours years God molded, shaped, and prepared me for the future in ministry. There are things I learned there that I didn’t even realize would help me until I had to apply them in life outside of IBC.”
Drew Mains | IBC Class of 2021

Preview Weekend is designed with the High School Junior and Senior (16-18 year-olds) in mind; however, college students, recent high school graduates and even those who have completed some college work are welcome to attend. If we are pressed for places we will evaluate attendees on a case-by-case basis giving priority to Sophomores who are 16 years of age at the time of the event and processing from there. Fifteen-year-old attendees are not currently permitted to attend, although exceptions can be requested by having your pastor reach out to initiate conversation at previewwweekend@indianabible.college.
