Discover who we are
VISION Seminary School of Biblical Training, previously known as VISION Seminary and School of Ministry, was founded in 1998 for the express purpose of providing quality and comprehensive Higher Christian Education to the people of God, while keeping the cost down to a minimum.
The Practical Theology Diploma Classes and The Master Certification Programs in Theological Studies of VSBT are designed to equip aspiring students and elevate present Pastors and leaders in the comprehensive work of Ministry. For this reason, we have chosen to offer and teach SEMINARY LEVEL COURSES that were taught to our Professors from accredited institutions; thereby keeping tuition cost 80% lower than the standard.
There are countless schools that are available to the people of God for higher Christian education purposes, however, there are none more dedicated to teaching Seminary Level Courses to those who are already in or preparing for service in the Ministry of Jesus Christ.
As a Christian school, VISION’S Practical Theology Courses and Master Certification classes are team designed and team taught, offering programs that are specifically intended for those wishing to improve on and advance their Christian Education. We are convinced that every person, regardless of educational background, geographic location, or financial situation should have the opportunity to become a more effective voice and witness for Jesus Christ. VISION instructors teach the seminary level courses from their time of study, in order to impart viable and relatable scriptural information for the student’s success.
VISION School of Biblical Training is a non-profit institution, owned, and operated, managed and maintained by a bona fide ministry, organization and/or church; lawfully operating as a non-profit religious corporation specifically known as Emmanuel Global Ministries / Independent Fellowship International i.f.i., dba LauRog Ministries.
VISION will award Earned Diplomas and Certifications for the completion of a prescribed course of study; ensuring that the student will be afforded the respect and esteem that comes with receiving a symbol of academic readiness. Those who desire to go further in their Higher Education can be accepted into PATRIOT BIBLE UNIVERSITY upon graduation from the Diploma class.
We have chosen not to seek governmental school accreditation offered by the U.S. Department of Education or a regional accrediting association…because we believe we should not have to allow secular institutions to dictate the qualifications for Christian instructors, or their programs and/or Ministries, in order to get a ministerial diploma.
Our Diplomas/Certifications are recognized by most churches, ministry institutions, and ministry organizations, but is not recognized by the Department of Education, secular or otherwise.
God bless you all and remember, we remain yours…”With the Word First.”
