ABOUT US
Biblical Leadership Institute exists to prepare men and women for ministry within and alongside the local church. We are a team of South African and international instructors who desire to see local church ministry strengthened along the Garden Route. Through strategic partnerships with ACRP (Association of Christian Religious Practitioners) as well as existing, accredited theological schools in South Africa, we offer qualifications designed to instill biblical leadership principles in the lives of our students.
