About North India Baptist Seminary
Training faithful servants of Jesus Christ to proclaim the gospel and plant churches throughout North India and beyond.
The Only Baptist Seminary in North India
Equipping Servants for Gospel Ministry
North India Baptist Seminary exists to train faithful men and women for gospel-centered ministry in one of the world's most spiritually needy regions. With over 400 million people in North India, the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.
Since our founding in 2002, we have been committed to providing rigorous biblical education that is accessible to pastors and ministry leaders. Our unique modular format and bilingual instruction enable students to pursue theological training while remaining active in their local church ministries.
