About Our President
Dr. Robert J. Long, B.Min., M.B.S., D.B.S., S.Litt.D.
Executive Director/Founder
Dr. Long was born in Kentucky and lived there until he entered the U.S. Army in 1953. After leaving the Army in 1956, he lived a rough life for the next few years. Eventually, he was saved, baptized, and (in 1979) felt God's call on his life to preach. He answered that call, and after Bible school he began preaching.
Dr. Long founded the radio broadcast "Salvation Unlimited" in 1985. He preached every Sunday on the radio until 2001. At the same time, he was an evangelist, preaching in churches, tents, and rented halls. Part of the time while he was doing evangelistic work, he pastored a church, whose services were broadcast over the radio. He saw many souls saved and decisions made for Christ.
In 1999, Dr. Long was burdened to start a movement of independent preachers and churches who loved the Lord more than the man-made rules he found in many churches. Therefore, he founded Independent Baptist Alliance, Inc. (IBA)... God blessed his efforts. Today, IBA has ministries and churches throughout America.
Dr. Long received his Bible diploma from Liberty Home Bible Institute, and degrees from Andersonville Baptist Seminary, Liberty Seminary, and Jacksonville Theological Seminary.
Brother Long feels strongly that God has called him to start this school. God has greatly blessed us with the instructors whom He has provided. Each one is a gifted teacher; and, all of them love God.
Our prayer at LBCS is that the students will enjoy their studies and use the knowledge they learn here to win lost souls for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
