VBC Christian Education
"Equipping The Saints"
Mission Statement
At VBC, it is our desire to teach people about the Gospel, guide them to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and to grow their faith so they can serve our God Almighty.
We want to lead you to understand your spiritual gifts, equip you to grow in your faith and help you understand how you can serve God. We desire that you be able to read your Bible and call upon the Holy Spirit to help you understand what God is saying to you. We will encourage you to develop a personal prayer life, learn what the attributes of God are, understand creation, and equip you to serve God in our Church, in our Community, in our Country and in our World.
Classes at VBC
Regardless of where you are in your spiritual journey, we want to equip you with biblical education. Life Courses equip you for discipleship in all areas of life by teaching biblical doctrine and principles for Christian Living. Under each class you will find whether the Class is available In-Person, Zoom or Recorded and stored in the Resource Library. We are working very hard to gain approvals for any content that we broadcast via Zoom. This will give us the proper copyrights that we need.
Life Courses typically run 4-10 weeks based on the curriculum. We offer courses in the Spring, Summer, and Fall. Check out our course offerings below.
What to expect
- Trained Leadership. Life Courses are led by trusted members of VBC who are well-studied in the course subject matter.
- Biblical Instruction. As God’s inspired Word, the Bible is useful for teaching (2 Tim. 3:16). We believe a biblical worldview is essential for Christian living.
- Open Discussion. Our course leaders will invite you to learn through discussion with other members. Come prepared to ask your questions and learn from one another.
- Practical Application. Each week, you will be equipped with principles to apply to your life and become a stronger disciple in the course’s specific area of focus.

In-Person
Join us in the Study of the People of the Promise: Kingdom Divided. We discover that the God of the Old Testament still speaks to His people today. The Old Testament prophets provide a close look at God’s character. We learn to hold fast to God’s character, uncovering new facets of who He was, is and always will be. We learn from the Kings and Prophets God’s unshakable character and humanity’s struggle with sin. We learn that the Old Testament Books are deeply integrated into the fabric of the New Testament. The Gospel writers relied heavily on Old Testament prophecies to recognize Jesus Christ as the One True Messiah. Jesus quoted the Old Testament often, if we skip reading the Old Testament, we miss the depth of sin that Jesus Christ uncovered and the wrath it deserved. When we understand fully why Jesus Christ desires mercy, not sacrifice, and calls not the righteous, but sinners, we are left with a tremendous sense of awe and gratitude.
