Oikodome Student Testimonials

I constantly thank God for the Oikodome School of Biblical Studies (OSBS) for equipping me in ministry in such a tremendous manner. Knowing that God has a call on your life is one thing – but, still, you have to be prepared; OSBS helped me to prepare. The experience was spiritually and mentally heartening and added great value to my life and ministry. Currently, I am enrolled at the Houston Graduate School of Theology, to advance my Christian education and ministry, where I am scheduled to graduate in the spring of 2009 with dual Master degrees in Christian Counseling and Spiritual Formation.

OSBS is a superb school. I highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about Christian education and ministry. If you are a Pastor you must attend. If you are a preacher, minister or teacher; or perhaps a layperson, OSBS is the place to start! To Dr. Richard Jewel Rose and the OSBS staff thanks for depositing your wisdom, skill, and knowledge. To God be the glory.

I’ve been attending Oikodome for the past 3 years. I am the Pastor of St. Stephens MBC of Wharton, TX. Every since I’ve been attending Oikodome my ministry through preaching and teaching has helped to strengthen the growth of the church. I’ve come a long way, but I know that I still have a long way to go. I believe anyone who is serious about getting a good education should consider Oikodome School of Biblical Studies. Oikodome has a faculty of teachers who are eager to equip students for the work of ministry. It has one of the very best teachers in Dr. Richard Jewel Rose, and through his teachings, along with others, I have been blessed and challenged to become a better pastor and teacher of the word of God!

Oikodome School of Biblical Studies has been and is a wonderful blessing to me. My study habits and methods of handling the Word of God have changed. Understanding the Greek and Hebrew meanings of the Scripture has taken me to another level. I love this School! I thank God for Dr. Richard Rose!

I am currently attending Oikodome School of Biblical Studies and as a result of the information, instruction, and genuine concern of the professors, my learning and understanding of the course material have been greatly improved. I'm a Pastor, and since I've been attending Oikodome, my congregation has grown in the Word because of what I've been taught. Dr. Richard Jewel Rose and the faculty members have proven to be invaluable in my growth and development as a pastor.

The atmosphere is great at the school. The students have a great relationship with each other. The time that I spend at Oikodome is exciting, informative, and valuable. I personally recommend Oikodome School of Biblical Studies for your Christian education and higher degree.
