Class of 2025
Dora L. Williams (Brunswick, GA)
Associate of Arts in Biblical Studies 

"Victorious Living Bible Institute is one of the best. I'm grateful that the Lord led me to this school. I began my journey in 2023 to pursue my Associate’s Degree in Biblical Studies. I’ve faced many challenges, but with the help of the Lord, the prayers of the righteous, and the encouragement from Dr. Sellers and others, I’ve made it to this point of receiving my Associate’s Degree.

This experience has been so impactful that I’ve decided to continue learning. The program has taught me so much — to have confidence in myself, to stand boldly on what I know, and to never stop growing."

Class of 2025
Eric and Renae Gary (Tamarac, FL)
Board Certified Christian Counselors

"We saw a post about becoming a Certified Christian Counselor on Facebook just days before the class began. It felt like God was saying, “You just need to start.” We were able to submit our documents and make the payment in time to begin the class on schedule.

Completing this course marked the beginning of our journey back to school and toward completing our degrees. It was a meaningful accomplishment that we, as a married couple, were able to achieve together.

Victorious Living Bible Institute and Dr. Renae Sellers were instrumental in helping us navigate the process of furthering our education. We love this school so much that we traveled with our children to attend graduation in person.

We are excited about completing the next level—together—at Victorious Living Bible Institute."
