Campus Life
Life on campus is a highlight of the FLBC experience. The campus community provides an atmosphere where students are known and cared about. Through classes, meals, chapel services, and campus activities, a sense of community is developed and students grow together spiritually. As friendships grow, students are able to laugh together, pray for one another, and wrestle through Biblical and theological topics as they study the Word of God together.
Dorm Life
Living spaces in the dorms provide social interaction and shared life experience among students. Devotional gatherings and prayer meetings unite students spiritually. The weeknight schedule brings students back under one roof and gives time for students to interact with dorm staff mentors who lend spiritual guidance and support.


Chapel Services
Regular times of worshipping together strengthen, challenge, and encourage the student body. Each Tuesday and Thursday at 10:50 a.m., the student body gathers for worship and the preaching of God’s Word. Songs of praise fill the chapel, Scripture is read, and students are challenged and encouraged by Biblical preaching. Special events are also a highlight during the year, such as Revival Conference, Missions Conference, and late-night vespers services.
Life in the Twin Cities
FLBC is located in the Minneapolis and St. Paul metropolitan area. The Twin Cities area is the largest population center between Chicago and Seattle.
The Twin Cities are a hub for arts, culture, ministry opportunities, food, sports and business. FLBC students enjoy exploring places like the Walker Art Center, the downtown Sculpture Gardens, or trendy coffee shops in Uptown. Students can catch a Twins game at Target Field or head to the Target Center for a Timberwolves game.
On the weekends, many FLBC students participate in urban ministry projects and street evangelism in downtown Minneapolis or Dinkytown near the University of Minnesota campus. With nearly every religion represented, the city is a mission field for students who desire to share the love of Christ with their neighbors.

Part-time Employment
The vast majority of students find part-time employment during their time at FLBC. All core classes at FLBC are scheduled in the morning hours, from 8 a.m. to noon, leaving the afternoons and evenings open for part-time jobs. A growing job market in the Minneapolis area offers many options for employment. Different types of work include warehouse jobs, nanny positions, daycare programs, retail shops, coffee shops, and office work. Throughout the years, FLBC students have maintained a great reputation among local employers for having a good work ethic, solid character, and being responsible. Many of these employers recruit FLBC students year after year. Check out the job opportunities page for more information.

Student Life Handbook
The Student Life Handbook provides details regarding student services, residence life, and community lifestyle expectations and policies. The handbook is meant to serve as a guideline for student conduct and campus life.
Ministry
At FLBC, students find many ways to put their faith into practice. Whether it’s through a choir or gospel team, partnering with an inner-city ministry, or volunteering in a local congregation, students grow and are stretched. Many get plugged into a local church by teaching Sunday school or teaching Wednesday night kid’s club. Whatever their gifting, FLBC students learn to serve through countless ministry experiences.
Music Ministry
Choir is a great opportunity for students to minister to individuals and congregations. FLBC features two choirs, named Concert Choir and Proclaim Choir. Concert Choir tours for two weeks during spring break and ministers through Christ-centered music, personal testimonies, and home stays. Proclaim ministers in a similar way during two extended weekend tours during the spring semester.
Gospel Teams
During the school year, FLBC Gospel Teams share the love of Christ through music, testimonies, puppet and drama ministry, and nursing home outreach. These teams travel on weekends to minister to congregations, youth groups, and children’s activities.
Summer Teams
During the summer, anywhere from 30 to 40 FLBC students are scattered in teams across the U.S. These summer ministry teams focus on teaching children Vacation Bible School, ministering to youth at Bible camps, and performing music concerts for spiritual encouragement and spreading the gospel message.
Missions Trips
Each spring, several students pack their bags and head out on a two-week missions trip to Ecuador. As part of the Cross-Cultural Ministry class, students gain exposure to what God is doing around the world and experience a different culture. They participate in service projects, share the gospel through drama, work with children, and teach Bible stories. This experience cultivates a heart for missions and many students consider missions work in the future.
Christian Service Credit
Each student at FLBC who participates in twenty hours of Christian service is eligible to apply for one Christian Service credit per semester. Some students teach Sunday school in a local church, others lead youth groups on Wednesday nights, and many serve in children’s ministry. Other students have volunteered at crisis pregnancy centers, counseled at youth lock-ins or weekend retreats, or partnered with inner-city homeless ministries.
Bible Camp Ministry
FLBC students often find positions at Bible camps in the summer. These campus have included the Association Retreat Center in Osceola, WI, Park River Bible Camp in Park River, ND, Camp Okoboji in Milford, IA, and Inspiration Point in Clitheral, MN.
