AKSBS Mission Statement
Believing that all Scripture is inspired by God, we seek to build up
the Body of Christ by equipping believers with the Word, that they may
gain a greater understanding of the Lord which will help them to
fulfill His call on their lives. Through an instructional format
designed to communicate Christ to this generation, we will teach the
Word of God.
Guiding Principles
This certificate-based education program is progressive and is designed
to equip believers and help them gain a greater understanding of God's
Word and teach a Biblical way of thinking about the world, the church
and the lost. As a result, we will no longer be children tossed to and
fro and with renewed minds we can rightly divide the word of truth,
therefore building up the Body of Christ.
It is important to present the Word of God through an
easy-to-understand teaching format that communicates Christ to this
generation. Using varied teaching methods, instructors create an
atmosphere of learning in the classroom that draws, invites and
motivates students to become not only hearers of the Word but doers.
Having prepared a foundation of sound educational techniques, we will
give believers tools for studying the Bible that will encourage a
desire in them to become life-long students of the Word of God.
