At PBC, we are a dedicated team of Christian educators committed to a gospel-centred, Kingdom-focused biblical and theological higher education.
Our approach as educators is to teach people to think through issues by providing foundational knowledge, tools and skills so that they can approach practical ministry with a well-developed framework for leading various forms of ministry, rather than prescribing one approach to ministry.
