Shasta Bible College is celebrating 50 years!
Spring semester, 2021 marks the 50th Anniversary of Shasta Bible College & Graduate School. As we look back to January, 1971, when we began as the Northern California Bible Institute, we praise God for the vision and foresight of Dr. Royal D. Blue, Pastor of North Valley Baptist Church, who saw the need for an institution to train pastors and Christian leaders for the far Northern California area. With over 500 alumni who are serving Christ as pastors, youth pastors, international missionaries, Christian school teachers, Biblical counselors, chaplains and lay-leaders; SBC&GS continues to herald the Gospel message and uncompromised Biblical truth across America and around the world. As President since 1985, I want to honor our past Presidents and leaders who gave initial guidance and leadership including Dr. Blue (1971-72), who at 94 still serves as Chancellor), Hugh Garland (1971-1972), Dr. Oran H. Smith (1972-75), Don Lamberson and Lynn Pace (1976-1979), Pastor Roger Martin(1979-1980), Dr. Charles Shoemaker (1980-81) and Dr. Gordon Rasmussen (1981-85).

A Welcome from the President
I want to extend a word of welcome to all who have taken time to visit the Shasta Bible College & Graduate School website. Whether you are a prospective student, an interested parent or grandparent, a pastor or Christian leader looking for a Biblically trustworthy institution to recommend, you should know that our faculty members and administrators are both academically qualified and experienced in a variety of church-related ministries. But more importantly, they are committed to the only consistently reliable source of truth, the Word of God, which is our final authority in all areas of our curriculum. We believe it is inspired (breathed out) by God and inerrant in the original autographs. We interpret it according to the literal, historical, grammatical method, taking into account context and figures of speech; and we are dedicated to teaching it, modeling its precepts and applying its life-transforming message to both life and ministry.
Our priority is to cultivate a campus atmosphere conducive to spiritual growth coupled with academic excellence and compassion for the souls of men and women. Our passion is to mentor and mold future servant-leaders who will impact their world for Christ. Our purpose is to produce Ephesians 2 Christians for such a time as this who are not only vertically reconciled according to Eph. 2:4-6, but also horizontally reconciled with fellow believers of all races and ethnic backgrounds through the atoning work of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ on the cross as illustrated in Eph. 2:11-19.
I invite you to explore the superb educational possibilities available to you here at Shasta Bible College & Graduate School. We are fast approaching our 50th Anniversary (Jan. 2021) and we are grateful to God for the hundreds of alumni who are now serving Christ across the nation and around the world. We would love for you to consider being part of our campus family. It’s easy to apply. Just click on the APPLY tab located on the home page of our website and follow the prompts. Questions? Feel free to phone our admissions office at (530) 221-4275 or toll-free at 1-800-800-4SBC.
