Berkshire Christian: Expanding Our Impact in Ministry Training

Dan Thorpe, Executive Director, Berkshire Christian

At Berkshire Christian, we remain steadfast in our mission to equip those called to ministry. As we move into this new season, we are excited to share key developments that will enhance our ability to serve the next generation of Christian leaders.

A New Home at Oak Hill Bible Church

Berkshire Christian has relocated to the Oak Hill Bible Church campus, thanks to the generosity of Pastor Dr. Erik Reynolds and the church leadership. This move provides financial stability, allowing us to invest more in ministry work and student support. As 2 Corinthians 9:8 reminds us, “God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”

New Website & Increased Scholarship Access

To better serve students, we have launched a new website, berkshirechristian.org, featuring an all-electronic scholarship application process. This ensures that financial assistance is more accessible, allowing students to focus on their spiritual and academic formation.

Significant Increase in Scholarship Awards

Recognizing the growing financial challenges of ministry training, our Board has approved substantial increases in scholarship support:

  • Ministry Training Institute (MTI): $900 per year (includes $600 for tuition and up to $300 for course materials)
  • Undergraduate Bible College Students: $1,000 per year
  • Graduate-level Seminary Students: $2,500 per year
  • Doctoral-level Students: $5,000 per year

Additionally, we are honored to invest $20,000 in the Berkshire Institute for Christian Studies (BICS) Founders Scholarship to support students in the 2025-2026 class.

These exciting developments are made possible through God’s provision and the faithful support of partners like you. Visit our website to learn more and join us in praying for the future of ministry leadership.
