AN UNUSUAL SCHOOL
Located on one of the highest hills in northwest San Antonio
is the 10-acre International Bible Center campus. IBC was
started when World War II temporarily halted the pioneer
missionary work of its founder, Leonard W. Coote. 
Having established a Bible training school in Ikoma, Japan,
the Lord challenged his heart to build a Bible training
center in the United States. His son, David B. Coote, was
president for 49 years before retiring in 1995. President
David W. Cook continues the vision today.
FOCUS
IBC specializes in Bible education and Christian service
training. The ordinary purpose of a Bible college is to
offer intensive instruction in God’s Word, so that by the
time of graduation the student will have a thorough
understanding of the Bible, combined with the ability to
effectively apply its truth under the leadership and
enduement of the Holy Spirit. Its major offerings are within
the Bible, strongly implemented by practical disciplines.
Bible courses are further supplemented by basic courses in
the general studies, designed to apply Bible knowledge to a
life of Christian service.
 INTERNATIONAL CONCEPT
Because International Bible Center was founded by a
missionary with a worldwide vision, every means possible is
developed to foster this purpose. During the school year,
many outstanding missionary and evangelistic speakers come
to the chapel to speak. An annual missions trip is scheduled
for upperclassmen. In the spring, students attend a
week-long missionary conference sponsored by a local church.
