Yes, Year 2 is a continuation course from the first year at the Bible school, so you must complete Year 1 at LOBC before you can apply for the second year. There are other Bible schools that offer a similar program to LOBC, and in some cases, you may be able to transfer your first year from another school. If you wish to transfer Year 1 from another Bible school, please contact info@lobc.se<\/a> before applying.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

In the first year at LOBC, you receive foundational teaching on Christian beliefs and faith-related topics. The subjects in Year 2 are more advanced and have a more practical focus. Mission and leadership are also central themes in Year 2, and you will have the opportunity to go on several longer mission trips. (Read more about Year 1<\/a> and Year 2<\/a>.)<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Year 2 is a natural progression from your first year at LOBC, which is also a so-called “Folkh\u00f6gskola” course in collaboration with Ume\u00e5 Folkh\u00f6gskola. Here, you will dive deeper into God\u2019s Word while being practically equipped and challenged as a leader. A large part of the year focuses on practical experience, where you can specialize in mission or local church leadership.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
