It is with great joy that I introduce to you the Asian Christian College of Theology (ACCOT), a distinguished Bible College located in a peaceful, lush-green campus in Pathanamthitta, Kerala. It has long been my dream to be used by God in raising up godly men and women for His work in India. Now, I rejoice in the Lord as I see that dream come true.
ACCOT is committed to providing a Christ-centered theological education. However, our goal is not mere academic excellence. We strive to know the God of the Bible, not just the Bible God gave. To this end, we emphasize fellowship with God, obedience to His Word, and character formation as we teach the Bible cover to cover. We also offer computer training, equipping you for broader opportunities beyond traditional ministry. For those of you who may struggle with English, which is our medium of instruction, we offer a period of focused English training before fully integrating you into the theology course.
ACCOT is blessed with a dedicated team of qualified Bible teachers and support staff. Our teachers, their families, and our non-teaching staff, strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment where students feel at home. Your safety is a priority of ours, and so we provide safe, separate accommodations for male and female students. Some of our graduates go on to pursue higher education, while others step directly into Christian ministry. Whether you are called to further academic study, or to church service, missions, or pastoral care, ACCOT is committed to prepare you thoroughly.
The decision to serve the Lord is the most important and eternally rewarding choice you can make in life. To serve well, however, you need the right training and preparation. I encourage you to prayerfully consider whether ACCOT is where God is leading you to be equipped for His work.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I look forward to the possibility of welcoming you to ACCOT family and serving our Lord together.
In your service and for God’s glory,
ACCOT is more than just a college for academics. Our courses are holistic and practical. We strive for a balance between the academic study of God’s Word and hands-on ministry experience. We equip everyday people to become able ministers of the Gospel.
Our programme consists of a 3-year bachelor’s degree with a focus on practical ministry. For those who believe they are called to full-time ministry, our Leadership Training department plans annual trips providing ample opportunities in practicing skills acquired.
ACCOT offers the ideal environment for transformation, as your mind is renewed by the Word of God. For some, these three years may be to restore their lives and their faith as they discover their true identity in Christ. Whether you attend to know what Gods calling is for you, or develop sound theology, or develop their own personal knowledge of and relationship with the Lord, studying at ACCOT is a life changing experience.
