Campus Updates BY ROGER PEACE ('94)

T his has been an incredible season of growth at Word of Life Bible Institute. As a team we are so humbled and grateful for all the Lord is doing in the lives of each student. Every student is a gift from God to us, and creating faith-defining experiences is our focus. We have just released a brand new Learning Management System (LMS), Canvas, which is considered the leading LMS. This tool improves our communication, scheduling, classroom experience, student interaction, and paper submissions. Say good-bye to Scantrons as all testing is done online in the classroom. We have also added Bible Study Methods to the first- year program, and beginning next year we are adding a Discipleship course to first year and Church History to second year. “Relationship” is a word you will hear much about if you are on the campus these days. We are laser-focused on every staff member and student connected in relationship. Strong relationships lead to deeper discipleship. Discipleship has always been a major focus at Word of Life Bible Institute, and as a team we are looking to build on that foundation with intentional training and with every student engaged in discipleship. As we serve our students academically and in relationship and ministry, making much of Jesus is the priority. As we grow and improve our overall student experience, our facilities are an important part of the process. We have just completed a full remodel of Asia Dorm, speaker cottages are being remodeled, roadways and walkways have been paved and the entire campus has LED lighting on walkways and roads. We have added a gazebo, sitting areas, and walkways to the center quad, and the walkways around the classrooms and library have all been redone with stamped concrete. In the original facilities master plan, we were going to remove every staff member and student connected in relationship"
