Is Sheffey College Right for Me?

Understanding what Sheffey College is… and is not.

Sheffey College is not a secular college, nor do we award secular degrees. We are a Bible institution committed to training ministers of the Gospel, whether these ministers will serve as pastors, missionaries, church planters, Christian school teachers, or in the business world, our goal is to prepare students with Scriptural foundational truths that will lead them toward a lifetime of service and Christian success.

Sheffey College is an evangelical college that teaches Baptist doctrine. 

A Bible College that Champions Personal Liberty

There are many areas in which Scriptures give clear and precise direction as to how we should and should not live, but we also acknowledge that the Word of God leaves an abundance of room for personal liberty and individual differences on a wide swath of subjects.

While so many Bible colleges have become notorious for their endless sets of rules and standards which often aren’t even Scripturally based, often becoming merely a yoke of bondage than a guide toward a successful Christian walk, we champion Galatians 5.1, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage…”

The desire of Sheffey College is to foster an environment where students don’t learn legalism and all its perils, but rather develop their own personal convictions and learn to lead honest and sincere Christian lives, while fully realizing that many great believers will differ from them on issues of preference.

Personal Walk & Qualifications for Enrollment

Sheffey College admits students of any race, color, disability, and national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the college. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, disability, national or ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, and athletic or other school-administered programs. The pastoral program is limited to men because of the Biblical qualifications of the pastor found in I Timothy 3.

Students must be born again Christians. 

Students must cheerfully abide by the rules of Sheffey College. The student should understand that attendance at Sheffey College is a privilege and not a right. This privilege may be revoked if the student does not adhere to rules of Sheffey College.
