YouTube, with 2.7 billion users globally, has revolutionized education.
Most users are age 18-40, presenting a unique opportunity to influence an entire generation with the gospel through an unprecedented, far-reaching platform. TVS has over 3.4 million lecture views on YouTube. This milestone humbly reflects the impact and success of our mission in online higher Christian education.
As we translate our video classes into new languages, our strategy includes
- Saturating YouTube and similar platforms. Many learners will engage deeply, moving from lecture to lecture, and course to course.
- We welcome YouTube learners and others into our formal Russian online Seminary programs - already 8,500 strong!
- We seek partnerships with Bible education schools to incorporate our courses, providing both academic and financial support to their students.
Not represented on this page are classes in eight additional languages that are spreading the gospel globally.
We are working tirelessly in order to translate courses
We believe that everyone deserves to have biblical training in their native tongue.
