About Us

Madurai Bible School was born out of a desire for believers in Tamil Nadu to have the opportunity to pursue a solid, Biblical study without having to leave the state. Founded in 1955, MBS has faithfully trained men and women in the Word of God for over 69 years.

Through the Lord's grace, it has grown from humble beginnings to a fully established Bible College with recognized courses and hundreds of alumni serving Christ across the world.
