The Ohio Baptist Education Society is an independent, not for profit, corporation. Its roots go back to the Baptist pioneers of Ohio, and to dedicated men and women who have served through the years to keep their dream a reality. This small devoted Society has served the churches of Ohio, the nation, and mission fields around the world. Scores of prominent denominational and professional church leaders have been rewarded by the courage and foresight of these pioneers.
The Ohio Baptist Education Society is the oldest, continuous education movement among Ohio Baptists. It’s history is the story of fifteen years of dedication and struggle to form a Society “to establish a school for the education of individuals of the Baptist Denomination, who are approved by the churches of which they may be members, and who have been examined and approved by this society as suitable candidates for the gospel ministry.”
