About BTCP
BTCP exists to equip pastors and church leaders around the world through biblical training grounded in the Word of God.
The Need for Bible Training
As the global church continues to grow, access to theological training remains limited in many regions. BTCP seeks to bridge this gap by providing accessible, reproducible, Bible based training that strengthens leaders and supports the health of local church communities.
Why BTCP?
BTCP is built using a model that is both practical and purposeful:
Rooted in the Word of God
Designed for ministry within the local church context
Built on a structured, multi-course curriculum
Developed as a reproducible model for long term impact
Centered on discipleship through in person teaching
The History of BTCP
In 1988, Dennis Mock taught at a pastors conference in Mombasa, Kenya, where he encountered church leaders who were eager to learn but lacked access to even basic theological training. Moved by this need, he developed a comprehensive 10 course curriculum designed to equip pastors with essential Bible knowledge, ministry skills, and tools for character development.
Since the first class graduated in Nairobi, Kenya in 1990, the Lord has expanded the ministry of BTCP around the world. Today, the program is used by hundreds of ministry partners in over 80 countries.
