Ethan College of Biblical Studies employs a distinctive and spiritually grounded educational method that sets it apart from many traditional theological institutions. Here are the key elements that make its educational method unique:
1. Revelation-Based Instruction
Ethan College of Biblical Studies emphasizes learning that is rooted in divine revelation rather than mere academic theory. The school believes that true biblical education must begin with encounters with God, mirroring the way biblical figures like Moses, Paul, and John received instruction.
2. Prophetic-Apostolic Curriculum Framework
The college integrates a prophetic and apostolic model of education:
Prophetic: Sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, dreams, visions, discernment, and hearing God’s voice.
Apostolic: Church planting, missions, discipleship, and spiritual governance.
This approach raises ministers who are not just informed, but transformed and sent.
3. Contextual Theology
The institution teaches the Bible from a perspective that engages with African realities—social, cultural, and spiritual. Students learn how to interpret Scripture faithfully while applying it to local contexts, especially in missions, deliverance, and church growth.
4. Combination of Academia and Spirituality
Ethan balances rigorous academic training (research, exegesis, biblical languages) with:
Spiritual disciplines: prayer, fasting, and personal consecration.
Field ministries: outreach, evangelism, and prophetic activations.
This equips students with both intellectual soundness and spiritual depth.
5. Mentorship and Discipleship Model
Unlike lecture-only systems, Ethan operates a mentorship model, where students are paired with experienced mentors (prophets, pastors, teachers) who help shape their ministerial character and calling.
6. Flexible and Modular Learning
Recognizing the need to accommodate various learners (pastors, workers, lay leaders), Ethan offers:
Modular courses (weekend or block classes)
Online and hybrid formats
Custom learning pathways (e.g., for evangelists, prophets, or church administrators)
7. Practical Ministry Exposure
Students are placed in live ministry environments, including:
Revival meetings
Church planting
Healing/deliverance services
Mission outreaches
This hands-on experience ensures theory is tested by practice.
8. Emphasis on Kingdom Relevance
The college stresses kingdom-focused leadership—raising students to become change agents in their churches, communities, and nations, not just pulpit preachers.
9. Integrated Life and Ministry Development
Ethan believes that no theological training is complete without holistic development. Courses are designed to also address:
Personal holiness
Marital and family life
Financial integrity
Leadership ethics
10. Visionary Foundation
Ethan was born out of a divine encounter (as received by Prophet Dr. Abiodun Adesida), which makes its foundation not just academic but prophetic in origin. This vision continues to guide its structure and goals.
