About TSBC

Tri-State Baptist College was organized in January of 1973 by the Bethel Baptist Church under the leadership of her pastor, Dr. Roy Westmoreland. Because it is believed by Bethel Baptist that the commission to make disciples, baptize them and teach them was given to the local, autonomous church, the Bethel Baptist Church sponsors and administers the school. It is believed that the college can succesfully maintain its Christian and Biblical principles only as it is administered by a local New Testament Church. The church insists that the college operate on the same fundamental, Biblical principles upon which the church is founded. Because the college is owned by Bethel Baptst Church, her main purpose is to prepare students for church and church- related vocations.
