Calvary Baptist Bible College

From Our Pastor

I want to personally thank you for taking the time to consider Calvary Baptist Bible College as a place in which to prepare for the Gospel ministry. We believe a call to preach comes with a call to prepare. It was this very premise that moved the heart of Dr. Roger Baker to begin training men for the ministry. Founded in 1988, Calvary Baptist Bible College is a fundamental, independent Baptist college committed to preparing God’s men to preach God’s Word.

We strive to offer our students a strong biblical academic program coupled with practical ministry training in order to equip them with the tools necessary to accomplish the ministry God has called them to. We believe in preachers training preachers. Therefore, our faculty consists of seasoned men of God who are well educated and bring to the classroom many years of pastoral and missionary experience. Classes meet all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

God has blessed us with graduates currently serving around the world as pastors, assistant pastors, youth pastors, and missionary church planters.

Calvary Baptist Bible College is located in the Piedmont region of North Carolina just thirteen miles north of Winston-Salem in King. For more information concerning our College, you may call the college office at 1-888-889-4777 or contact Dr. Baker directly at

Yours for the Harvest,
