History
On 10 May 1949, Vernon Newland met with 40 concerned Texas church leaders to discuss establishing a Bible college in the Dallas area to train men and women for the ministry. Dallas Christian College opened for classes in Downtown Dallas on September 12, 1950. The present campus is located in Farmers Branch, a suburb just north of Dallas. The school has grown much and has trained more than 2,000 students for the ministry. It is accredited by the Association for Biblical Higher Education.[1]
