About Berean Bible Academy
Equipping believers with sound biblical education for effective ministry and godly living since 2010.
Our Story
Berean Bible Academy was founded in 2010 with a simple but powerful vision: to make quality biblical education accessible to every believer, regardless of location or circumstances. Named after the Berean Christians in Acts 17:11 who “examined the Scriptures daily,” we are committed to fostering a culture of diligent Bible study and theological reflection.
What began as a small local Bible training program in Lagos, Nigeria, has grown into a fully online academy serving students from over 30 countries. Our growth has been driven by a deep conviction that the church in Africa and the developing world needs well-trained, theologically grounded leaders who can effectively minister in their contexts.
Today, BBA offers a comprehensive range of programs from certificate to master's level, all delivered through our modern learning management system. Our students include pastors, church workers, missionaries, Sunday school teachers, and believers who simply desire to grow deeper in their understanding of God's Word.
Our Mission
To provide accessible, affordable, and academically excellent biblical education that equips believers for faithful ministry, godly leadership, and lifelong service to God and His people.
Our Vision
To be a leading institution of biblical education in Africa, raising a generation of theologically sound, Spirit-filled leaders who will transform their communities and advance the Kingdom of God worldwide.

Statement of Faith
We believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God.
We believe in one God, eternally existing in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension, and His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, and that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is essential for the salvation of lost and sinful humanity.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, who indwells and empowers believers for godly living and service.
We believe in the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ, forming one body, the Church.
