God brings His Church to maturity through the teaching of His Word (Ephesians 4:11-15). In the Ugandan church, discipleship has not kept pace with evangelism. Church planting has outpaced pastoral training, and untrained leaders and their congregations are ill-equipped to speak to the issues challenging the African Christian.
• Cults and False Teaching
 • Islam
• Witchcraft
• AIDS
• Poverty
• Corruption
The Church of Uganda plans to meet these challenges through the establishment of the Uganda Bible Institute. Rev. Amos Magezi, a Ugandan pastor and graduate of Reformed Theological Seminary, is the Theological Education Director for the Ankole diocese and coordinator of the project.
The chief aim of Uganda Bible Institute is to strengthen the Church in Uganda by equipping church leaders with the necessary skills to understand and teach the Bible in order to reach their congregations and non-believers effectively.
Goals for the Institute:
• Equip church leaders with knowledge and skills in Biblical Studies
• Provide facilities for residential students and leaders’ conferences
• Develop a library which facilitates theologically conservative scholarship
• Encourage leaders to develop theological and discipleship materials
• Work in cooperation with existing theological programs
• To connect overseas churches, organizations and higher institutions with UBI
• To provide basic knowledge and skills for a Biblical Worldview
Notice:
If you receive any emails or other solicitations for funds to UBI or to cover medical emergencies or issues for faculty, staff or families, please confirm first through the official contacts on this website.
Blessings
Uganda Bible Institute
