ICM's Mini Bible College

The Mini Bible College (MBC) serves as International Cooperating Ministries’ (ICM) core curriculum for nurturing believers and assisting the spiritual growth of the Church worldwide. Pastor and teacher Dick Woodward has a unique approach to making the scriptures come alive, cutting through denominational and cultural boundaries. The audio teachings, which cover Genesis through Revelation, provide a devotional approach to the scriptures and is easily understood by those with little education and those who are very educated. MBC has been translated into 26 languages spoken by over 4 billion people with more languages in development.

In the late 1970s, when his mega-church ministry seemed at its zenith, Pastor Dick Woodward was afflicted with a rare degenerative disease of the spinal cord that slowly and steadily left him a bedfast quadriplegic. In spite of huge obstacles and crippling limitations in his life, he remained active in small groups, mentoring, and writing Bible study materials.

The late Pastor Woodward, who passed March 8 2014, received his B.A. degree from Biola University and did graduate work at San Jose State University and Dallas Theological Seminary. He is the author of many devotional and inspirational booklets. His expository survey of the scriptures, known as the Mini Bible College (MBC), has been currently translated into 36 languages and used around the world to nurture and assist church growth.
