Our Teaching Philosophy

Our faculty combines academic excellence with practical ministry experience. Each instructor brings both theological training and real-world ministry experience to the classroom.

Biblical Foundation

All teaching is rooted in Scripture and committed to Baptist principles and doctrines.

Practical Application

Theory is always connected to real ministry situations and practical Christian service.

A Labor of Love

As mentioned in our history, "Able and competent workers volunteered to teach in the school" when ILBBI was founded. This spirit of voluntary service continues today.

Our faculty members serve not primarily for financial gain, but out of dedication to training the next generation of Christian workers. Their commitment demonstrates the same faith and sacrifice that founded this institution.

"Our able and competent faculty can help you strengthen yourself to the task."

Growing Our Own

Several of our faculty members are graduates of ILBBI itself, including Ptr. Reynaldo Alipio Jr. (2008), Bro. Michael Jayshon Espiritu (2009), Bro. Edward Melwin Paino Jr. (2011), and Ms. Caludine Calimquim (2023). This demonstrates the quality of our training and the commitment of our graduates to continue the mission of the institute.
