The Vision Lives . . .

. . . The General Assembly

voted Dr. Williamson’s vision

into reality. Leaders in our

church expedited selection of a site and the first students were enrolled in the fall of 1967.

Our College . . .

. . .views truth through

the Wesleyan-Holiness

perspective and affirms the

Bible as its cornerstone. We emphasize

the doctrine of entire sanctification and

living a holy, Christlike life.

NBC Serves the Church

• Founded and sponsored by the Church of the Nazarene, our college has a unique place among the institutions of higher learning in our denomination.

• Ministerial preparation is our priority.

• We are committed to academic

excellence.

The Support of our Church . . .

. . . Reduces the cost of education at NBC. Without the help of the Church, the cost of ministry preparation would increase by nearly 40%.

•Your financial help will be a continuing encouragement to God’s

called ones.
