“Greg L. Bahnsen, (1948-1995), was an ordained minister in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and a full time Scholar in Residence for the Southern California Center for Christian Studies. He received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Southern California, specializing in the theory of knowledge. He previously received the B.A. (magna cum laude, philosophy) from Westmont College, and then simultaneously earned the M.Div. and Th.M. degrees from Westminster Theological Seminary. Dr. Bahnsen lectured to a broad range of evangelical Christian groups at many colleges and conferences.
He was an experienced apologist and debater, a clear and cogent teacher of the Christian worldview who was devoted to training believers in understanding and applying the Christian faith to every area of life. He published numerous scholarly articles, a number of well-known books, and has over 1,500 recorded lectures and sermons. NOTE: While Dr. Bahnsen died on December 11th, 1995, his audio tapes and written materials were, and still remain, the foundation for Covenant Media Foundation’s ministry.” – CMF
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
“Do you understand what you are reading?” The man replied, “How can I, unless someone instructs me?” And he urged Philip to come up into the carriage and sit with him.
The Bahnsen Bible Academy assists in understanding Scripture and applying it through the audio teaching ministry of the late Dr. Greg L. Bahnsen. In September 2020, all of Dr. Bahnsen’s audio files were released into the public domain by The Bahnsen Institute, with the encouragement to duplicate, share, and distribute his materials far and wide until the knowledge of the glory of The Lord fills the earth, as the waters cover the sea. Though this website has no affiliation with The Bahnsen Institute, The Bahnsen Bible Academy was founded and exists to pursue all of the aims it encourages.
Now that Dr. Bahnsen’s audio files are publicly available, a great effort has been made to enhance the sound quality of his over 1,500 recorded lectures and sermons. The Bahnsen Bible Academy joins this restoration effort and uniquely adds navigational timestamped outlines for ease of access and comprehension. The site also houses articles, videos, and teaching aids to help all levels of Bible students. It is my prayer that all of these things will be of great benefit to anyone seeking instruction and to be able to rightly divide The Word of Truth. — MD Allen.

1. Introduction — Christianity Is Not One Argument Among Many. It Is the Foundation of All Reasoning Most people approach Christianity as if it were simply one option on a shelf of competing belief systems. You compare it to atheism, Islam, Buddhism, or vague spirituality, weigh the arguments, and decide which one seems most persuasive. […]
Christian apologetics does not begin with clever arguments. It does not begin with philosophy, science, or cultural analysis. It begins where Christianity itself begins: with God speaking. Before we ever ask whether God can be proven, the Bible starts somewhere else. It begins with God speaking, not with us evaluating Him. Scripture presents God as […]
Every culture argues about right and wrong.About justice.About freedom.About what people deserve and who gets to decide. Scroll through social media, listen to the news, or sit in a college classroom, and you’ll hear passionate moral claims everywhere. People speak with confidence, urgency, and outrage. What you won’t often hear is this question: Where do […]
A lot of Christians struggle to share their faith, not because they’re apathetic, but because they feel the weight of getting it right. Often it’s because they don’t know what to say, when to say it, or how to say it without blowing up the conversation. Evangelism today doesn’t usually start behind a pulpit.It starts […]
Greg Bahnsen is remembered for his faithful service to the cause of Christ, especially in the way he approached thinking itself. He often quoted his mentor, Cornelius Van Til: “I was to learn to think God’s thoughts after him in every field of endeavor.” That commitment shaped Dr. Bahnsen’s entire body of work. He believed […]
There are a range of differing thoughts about YouTube’s influence on the populace, but I would argue that they’d all agree it’s huge. “YouTube has 2.1 billion monthly active users across the globe and around 122 million daily users,” According to the Deadline article, YouTube Content Creators Deliver Burgers, Nine-Foot Jeans, An 16-Carat Gold Xbox Controller…And Enormous Audiences. It continues, “…the platform’s reach often surpasses film and TV viewing figures…a fact that has caused the film and television industry to sit up and take notice.” And, I might add, they’re not the only ones taking notice; any missions-minded Christian should see the great potential these modern tools have to reach the world for Christ, and fast at work doing so.
A year ago I started on YouTube with Dr. Bahnsen’s Apologetics series. As it nears completion, I look forward to bringing to the platform—and other social media—his series on The Reformation, Eschatology, and Revelation – some of the most needed, controversial, and popular, sermons and lectures of our day. These especially, can help Bible students when they are accompanied with the added notes and outlines uniquely provided by The Bahnsen Bible Academy’s website…So, please spread the word about the site, and stay tuned!
The Bahnsen Bible Academy comes along your side to help you study Scripture through sermon outlines, remastered audio lectures, articles, and video timestamps for easy navigation.
