OUR LEADERS

Apostolic Covering. Spirit-Filled Faculty.

Judah Bible College operates with a clear, simple governance structure designed to keep the school accountable to its mission, its covering, and its students. At the top sit our Chancellor and Vice Chancellor — Dr. Steve and Pastor Reita Ball — who provide the apostolic covering of the entire institution.

TEACHING FACULTY

The men and women who teach at Judah Bible College were not chosen for their credentials alone. They were chosen because they carry the Word, walk with the Spirit, live what they teach, and bear fruit that lasts. Each is planted in a local church, accountable to apostolic leadership, and committed to the JBC Statement of Faith.
