Christ as his personal Savior .
Carlos ’ life then took a dramatic turn . He completed the course , was saved and baptized , and actively participated in numerous church ministries . In 1991 , driven by a deepening thirst for knowledge about God , the Bible , and Christianity , he enrolled at ISBL . When Carlos graduated from the seminary in 1994 , he married his girlfriend and began working fulltime in the Maringa church that had introduced him to the Word of God . Eager to continue his growth and learning , Carlos later earned a master ’ s degree and a doctorate in ministry from Asbury Theological Seminary .
Over the years , ISBL has equipped more than 2,500 students . Its courses and ministries cover pastoral theology , basic theology , children ’ s education , prison ministry , and correspondence courses .
As ISBL navigates financial challenges with a smaller yet dedicated student body , we ask for your prayers .
