Why I Believe in KMBC: Financially Responsible I recently came across a very interesting chart which gave the cost of educating a student in the accrediting association of which we are a member (KMBC is accredited by ABHE, Association for Biblical Higher Education). KMBC’s cost per student was about 30% less than other schools our…
Why I Believe in KMBC: Raising Spiritual Leaders For several years, as I have represented KMBC, I have been telling people that KMBC is a specialty school that trains youth how to do ministry and how to be spiritual leaders.

At most colleges and universities, including many Christian schools, hero status is conferred on the basis of secular standards.
