CBC in Focus:

Central Bible College has been developing spiritual leaders since 1922. Located in Springfield, Missouri, CBC is the premier Bible College of the Assemblies of God.

Over the past 85 years, CBC has established a rich tradition of relevance, educating and equipping believers to declare God’s Word and build God’s Kingdom in their generation. Sixty years ago, that meant training future missionaries to fly airplanes at the Springfield airport. Today, it means something entirely different. And yet our mission remains the same.

CBC enriches the education of its students by coupling it with practical training and hands-on experience. Through a variety of on-campus and community ministry opportunities and partnerships with local churches, CBC students put their faith into practice, sharpening their leadership skills and making a difference.

CBC develops spiritual leaders in every area of their life – heart, soul, mind, and strength.

Community/Regional Information:

Our beautiful campus is set against the colorful backdrop of the Ozark Mountains in Springfield, Missouri, a favorite vacation destination. With lakes and resorts a short drive to the north and Branson just 30 minutes to the south, Springfield is in the perfect spot for family fun. Whether you prefer the great outdoors or adventurous theme parks for that weekend escape from the classroom or room services for the visiting family at the finest hotels, Springfield has it all!
