Lake Charles Bible College opened its doors in the fall of 1993 after the relocation of Louisiana Christian University in Sunset, Louisiana. Along with the Honorable Preston Miller, Dr. Don Johnson had long believed that there was a need in Southwest Louisiana area for practical religious teaching and hands-on training for Christian people. Over the years we have found that most people who enroll in Lake Charles Bible College are adults studying for a second vocation in God’s Kingdom.

It was the goal of Dr. Johnson and the entire teaching staff to provide affordable religious training to men and women who are older and perhaps have families and jobs that could not leave. There were people who had a desire to preach and teach, but because of life commitments, students were unable to leave their daily routines to attend a traditional classroom setting. LCBC offers an alternative in Christian education at an affordable price.

Over the past nineteen years, through their distance learning program, LCBC has reached many people living in various states spread across the United States.   Lake Charles Bible College has given birth to five (5) other Bible Colleges, which are founded and administered by the graduates of LCBC. On August 8, 2008 Dr. Jimmy R. Stevens was named as the second President of LCBC. As a former instructor and graduate, Dr. Stevens has the vision of reaching into all 50 states with the Distance Learning Program and extending beyond Mexico and the Virgin Islands. LCBC will offer cutting edge conferences and seminar by exposing LCBC students to some of the greatest Christian educators and world-class leaders in America. It is the desire of LCBC to train/educate men and women, who plant new churches with a heart for ministry, evangelism and missions.

LCBC has moved its campus to the New Covenant Faith Baptist Church in Lake Charles, Louisiana with the hope of expanding its buildings and facilities.
