New Life Bible College & Seminary was founded by Dr. Greg Ota with a singular vision — to make sound, Spirit-filled theological education available to every believer, regardless of their background or geographic location. Sheltered under the non-profit New Life Empowerment Development Centers, Inc., NLBCS was built on the conviction that the Church deserves well-trained, biblically grounded leaders. From its earliest days, NLBCS has championed accessibility in Christian education. By offering both Classroom Studies and a robust Home Studies program, the college has broken down the barriers that once kept dedicated men and women from pursuing formal theological training.
