Since 1955, NTBI has existed to train the next generation
of young people passionate about God’s glory and
reaching the nations with the gospel of grace. God has
used NTBI graduates to plant churches in countries all
over the world. We believe in the fulfillment of the
Great Commission. We also believe that the local church
was to be the vehicle for its fulfillment.
It is our desire to partner with local churches that
are challenging their people to actively get involved
in God's global purposes. One of the ways we involve
local churches is in our application process. We ask
that prospective students have their pastor fill out
a confidential reference form.
If you have been asked to do so and you have any questions
regarding the application process, you may contact an
admissions counselor during business hours by phone,
email, or mail.
We have created a multimedia presentation for
you to download and use to encourage your young people
to consider the value of receiving a solid Bible education
at NTBI. You may also email us your mailing address
and we'll send you a free copy on CD-ROM by clicking

"New Tribes and Awana share a common heritage. Their roots run together all the way back to the days of Paul Rader and the Chicago Gospel Tabernacle. Paul Fleming and Lance Latham were products of this
groundbreaking evangelist's ministry. Their vision to carry the gospel of Jesus Christ to the four corners of the earth continues unabated through New Tribes Bible Institute. NTBI thoroughly prepares students to go into the most remote byways
found anywhere. It is vitally important work that will change untold numbers of lives for eternity. I thank God for their dedication to fulfilling the Great Commission."
"In a day and age
when interest in cross cultural missions
appears to be waning in the American church
it is worth noting that New Tribes Bible
Institute continues its historic commitment
to laying the proper Biblical foundation
for this next generation to prepare them
for reaching the most unreached. The way
they train their students is exemplary and
I gladly endorse their godly activites."

"NTBI is awesome!
Not only was I blown away by the quality
of the staff and the intensity of the program,
I was absolutely impressed with the sheer
focus of the student body on fulfilling
the Great Commission in this generation!"
" For decades, New
Tribes Bible Institute has faithfully prepared
servants of God for effective ministries
all across the world. Many of their graduates
serve with New Tribes Mission in tribal
cultures. Many of their graduates serve
in our local churches right here in the
U.S. All of their graduates received the
same kind of applied biblical education
from an excellent faculty and staff thoroughly
committed to global evangelization. I am
eager to commend this outstanding school
to all those who seek a place where life
and learning meet in such a practical way,
with effects that truly reach into eternity."
Les Lofquist
International Executive Director IFCA
"For a solid grounding
in God's Word and countless opportunities
to put that knowledge into practice, I wholeheartedly
endorse NTBI. The unique emphasis on missions
- taking the Gospel to every tribe, tongue
and nation - is passionate and purposeful.
Expect to be equipped for life and ministry."
