THE DREAM: WCBCS began as a dream of President Kevin Harrison in 1987 after attending Impact '87 and hearing Lloyd Zeigler speak about his passion for training students. In 1999 the dream grew as Harrison focused in on creating a Bible college that is practical and relevant to life and ministry and yet one that would NOT create disciples of debt. Together with a team of educated men and women who have a passion for God and compassion for people, we've launched WCBCS as an online college and seminary so we could minimize the costs and allow people to continue their education without having to turn their family's lives upside down.

OFFICIAL LAUNCH: The official launch of West Coast Bible College & Seminary was in 2006 after two years of preparations. Since then we have been privileged to serve over 3,000 students from around the world in getting the education they need for life and ministry. We are affiliated with Casa do Oleiro Ministries in Brazil which means "Potter's House" in Portuguese. Since 2000, Casa do Olerio has been involved with launching hundreds of churches in Brazil, Africa, India, Russia, and other parts of the world, as well as to start and run orphanages for those in need. The goal of CdO is to see over 1 million people accept Jesus Christ as their personal Savior over the next 10 years and to plant 500 more churches. To do this, we MUST train ministers to reach people!
