General Info

Florida Beacon College and Seminary began teaching Bible Truths to students aspiring to become Pastors, Missionaries, and Bible Teachers in 1947 under the leadership of Dr. Charles M. Leaming. At that time the school was located in St. Petersburg, Florida and known as St. Petersburg Bible Institute. As the student body grew, the school was later moved to Largo, Florida and the name changed to Florida Beacon College & Seminary. The school today, located in Jacksonville, Florida, still maintains the same Conservative, Full Gospel beliefs in a non-denominational atmosphere and upholds the Bible as the foundation of all our studies. Under the same leadership appointed by Dr. Charles M. Leaming in the early 1980's, Florida Beacon College & Seminary continues to equip students who have a call from God to minister in this generation.
