Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies

BCFK is non-denominational by design: the curriculum does not flatten two thousand years of Christian thought into a single party line. Students read primary sources — Scripture, fathers, reformers, and philosophers — and form their own informed convictions under mentor guidance.

The full Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies requires more than 438,000 pages of reading, and that standard does not change. It is also perfectly acceptable — and encouraged — for Keys residents to take only one or two courses. Education is valuable whether or not you pursue the entire curriculum. Life here is not easy. We know that. You may pause and resume a course up to three times (eight weeks each, with instructor approval) before an administrator needs to sign off, stretching a single course across as much as a year.

The full degree includes more than 600 volumes of required reading totalling 438,000 pages, over 16,000 quiz questions, and nearly 1,000 pages of original student research documented in Society of Biblical Literature (SBL) citation style. That is the standard for graduates — not a requirement to enroll in a single course.
