How Can You Leave Your Legacy at Biola?

In 1908, Lyman Stewart, president of the Union Oil Company, and Rev. T.C. Horton stepped into the 20th century with a vision to change the world. Dedicated to combating the moral decay and faithless liberalism of their day, Stewart and Horton established the Bible Institute of Los Angeles to educate and equip men and women with a relevant Christianity that would impact society at home and abroad.

Over the years, that vision has been carefully preserved and expanded through the leadership of men like Louis Talbot, Samuel Sutherland, and Clyde Cook. Biola's Vision to "impact the world for Jesus Christ" is being fulfilled through accomplished graduates like South Dakota Senator John Thune and apologist Josh McDowell, and through the counseling ministries of Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend. In addition, thousands of alumni are serving throughout the world, representing Biola University on nearly every continent.
