Equip your leaders with a comprehensive Nepali Bible curriculum

Many pastors carry the heavy weight of ministry without formal biblical education. They lead congregations, counsel families, and preach the Word. Yet they do this without access to a seminary or Bible college. You see their dedication. You also see their need for deep, structured biblical study. We provide a proven framework to help you train these leaders.

Pastors serve without access to seminary

Church leaders step into ministry because they love their people. But passion alone does not replace a solid theological foundation. Many serve with no access to seminary or Bible college. Distance and life responsibilities keep them from formal education. They need accessible, structured biblical training.

Very few institutions offer comprehensive Bible training in Nepali. This creates a significant gap for Nepali-speaking pastors, and it limits their ability to shepherd their congregations.

You know these leaders. You see their potential. You understand the challenges they face every week. They need a reliable framework to study the Bible. They need material that respects their calling and builds their understanding. They deserve a complete biblical foundation.

Proven biblical training in the Nepali language

You can provide the theological foundation your leaders need. Bible Training Centre for Pastors (BTCP) offers a comprehensive curriculum translated into Nepali. This material is designed specifically for pastors and church leaders. It provides a structured approach to biblical study.

Leaders study the text together. Graduates are equipped to lead and train others. They take what they learn and pass it on to their congregations. This multiplies the impact of the training across the community.

BTCP is a member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, its curriculum is used in 105 countries, and it has more than 200,000 graduates. Partner reports show more than 8,500 people have taken part, mostly in Nepal.

This is a complete, proven tool you can use to train pastors in your network. You do not have to build a training program from scratch.

Three tracks that fit every level of church leadership

Every leader can start at the right level.

BTCI (5 courses, 275 hours) equips lay leaders and small group hosts. Graduates can apply for advanced standing at Dallas Theological Seminary.

See the course lists on our three tiers of training page.

Live classes your own church can host

BTCP classes are live and face-to-face, led by a local instructor from your church or ministry. Instructors have theological training through seminary, Bible college, BTCP programs, or equivalent biblical education. BTCP prepares each instructor in a two-day teacher workshop and provides teaching guides and ongoing support.

Fees that keep training within reach

Fees are per student, per course, and depend on where the class meets: $20 in North America and $11 everywhere else. The five BTCI courses cost $100 in North America and $55 elsewhere. Manuals are included, and there are no franchise or subscription fees. If these fees are not workable in your setting, we accept applications for a reduced rate. Partners order materials through BTCP on our ordering page.

Common questions

Is the curriculum available in this language? Yes. The translation is listed as completed on our translations page. Our team will confirm which materials are available when you meet with us.

How long does it take? Partners set the schedule, as long as each course meets its minimum hours. Many classes meet once a week for a few hours; others hold week-long intensives each quarter. The BTCI track (275 hours) usually takes one and a half to two and a half years, depending on how often and how long classes meet.

Where can classes be held? Almost anywhere: churches, homes, rented spaces, even restaurants and other dining establishments.

How are students evaluated? Instructors look at attendance, participation, and consistent completion of the study-question sections in the manuals.

Can students in different tracks learn together? Yes. Students working toward different tracks can study in the same class for the courses their tracks share.

Can students take the courses online? No. Classes are live and face-to-face, so students and teachers learn together in the same room.
