About the Greensboro Bible Institute

Since September 24, 1967, the Greensboro Bible Institute has been training men and women in the truths of God’s Word as a testimony of the burden of the late Dr. J. William Kanoy, pastor of Church Street Baptist Church for 28 years. Education and exaltation were always the trademarks of the ministry of Dr. Kanoy. He felt a real need among the older men of the community who had been called to preach but were not able to attend a Bible college full-time as they had to work to support their families. Therefore, the Greensboro Bible Institute was formed. Its first graduating class was in 1972. God has tremendously blessed our school, which is evidenced by the ever-increasing demand for our graduates. Presently, graduates of our school are pastoring churches in many states and foreign organizations, and still others are supporting their local churches in diverse positions. Several churches have been established around the world as a result of our graduates. However, the greatest blessing is the countless number of souls being reached by GBI graduates with the gospel for the glory of God.
