On One Accord Ministry exists to support and equip participants to reach the lost, to serve those in need, and to display love, both individually and as a leaders in the community.
On One Accord Bible Institute is a Christian academic community in the tradition of evangelical institutions of higher education. As such, OOABI continues the philosophy of education which first gave rise to the institute, and which is summarized in the following propositions.
God, the infinite source of all things, has shown us truth through scripture, nature, history, and above all, in Christ.
Persons are spiritual, rational, moral, social, and physical, created in the image of God. They are, therefore, able to know and to value themselves and other persons, the universe, and God.
Education as the process of teaching and learning, involves the whole person, by developing the knowledge, values, and skills which enable each individual to change freely. Thus it occurs most effectively when both instructor and student are properly related to God and each other through Christ.
SCRIPTURE
On One Accord Bible Institute believes God’s saving revelation has been supremely made in Jesus Christ. The Bible is the complete and authentic record of that revelation. We are committed to both the Old and New Testaments as God’s infallible message for the church and the world. The Scriptures are foundational to the education process at On One Accord Bible Institute.
SPIRITUAL FORMATION
On One Accord Bible Institute believes that Spiritual Formation is at the heart of all we do. Spiritual Formation is the process of nurturing an intimate relationship with God, encompassing heart, soul, and mind. Spiritual Formation is obedience to the Word of Christ and an intentional commitment to grow, study, pray, and be held accountable for our life and witness, both before God and one another.
COMMUNITY
On One Accord Bible Institute builds community through shared faith. As students, staff, faculty, and administration, we identify ourselves as community. We express community through Chapel, classes, Spiritual Formation groups, social events, conferences, prayer cells, and joint ministry experiences as we work and live together. Within this environment of support and challenge, it is possible for us to grow inwardly, in our relationship with God and others, and in our outlook on the world.
ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
On One Accord Bible Institute is committed to academic excellence. While seminary education is unique, OOABI creates an atmosphere conducive to academic studies and sustains high scholastic standards from a locally recognized faculty. Integrated within our curriculum is the whole framework of the Institute’s Core Values leading to a goal of lifelong learning expressed through servant leadership.
