About us
Greetings!
I’m Dr. Gary V. Whetstone, President and Founder of the Gary Whetstone Worldwide Ministries & Jesus Experience, and I welcome you to the School of Biblical Studies.
Our Story
Since personally experiencing the miraculous deliverance and healing of God from drug addiction and mental illness in 1971, Dr. Whetstone has devoted his life to empowering others to experience Jesus. Thousands experience freedom in every area of life through the Word of God by attending hundreds of bible schools across the world. Today, he frequently ministers around the world in churches, seminars, evangelistic crusades, and on the Internet with live interactive webinars, and free bible school courses.
Gifted in teaching, Dr. Whetstone provides practical biblical instruction wherever he ministers and sees God demonstrate in power and evidence with signs, wonders, and miracles.
Our History
God revealed His vision and plan for a bible school to Dr. Gary V. Whetstone in 1984. He was empowered by the Holy Spirit to create and develop the School of Biblical Studies. There was a strong conviction that God’s Word would reveal Jesus’ life and train the Body to become effective ministers.
Beginning in 1986, hundreds of School of Biblical Studies’ schools have been birthed and established around the world. The school has been molding and shaping tens of thousands of believers of all ages, educational backgrounds, denominations and nationalities through God’s Word. Our school has a history of developing spiritual leaders with the revelation of Jesus Christ to go forth into the world proclaiming with boldness and assuredness, that Jesus Christ is Lord.
In 1986, the School of Biblical Studies was offered with a cost for tuition and study guides in classroom settings at our Main Campus in New Castle, Delaware USA and around the world in Branch Schools.
The online school has been operating since 2013 in an audio format for each course with downloadable study guides.
Then in 2013, God put it on Dr. Gary Whetstone’s heart to make the entire school available for audit, that is, tuition-free without receiving the certificate. Students may take courses for credit and for audit through the online campus.
