Study the Bible online without enrolling in college

You may want to understand the Bible more deeply without pursuing a degree, completing assignments, or following a college schedule.

The Calvary Chapel Bible College Legacy Library makes that possible. For $15 per month or $120 per year, subscribers receive on-demand access to complete lectures from more than 60 past Calvary Chapel Bible College courses.

There are no admission requirements, academic deadlines, assignments, examinations, or grades. Choose one course that interests you or work your way through the entire collection at your own pace.

What Is the CCBC Legacy Library?

The Legacy Library is a subscription-based collection of Bible-centered teaching from CCBC’s history.

Rather than offering isolated messages or brief devotional videos, the library contains complete lecture series from past Bible college courses. This allows subscribers to follow a biblical book or subject across multiple lessons and study it in greater depth.

Available subjects include:

  • Books of the Old and New Testaments

  • Theology and Bible study methods

  • Apologetics and world religions

  • Church history

  • Spiritual formation and Christian ethics

  • Ministry and leadership

  • Christian living

Most courses include a free preview lesson, so you can experience the teaching before subscribing.

Learn from Calvary Chapel Bible College's Legacy of Teachers

The collection preserves teaching from an extensive roster of past CCBC faculty and guest instructors.

Courses feature teachers such as Dr. Joseph Holden, Dave Shirley, Dr. Joel Wingo,  Mike Madigan, Brent Yim, Jasmine Alnutt, and many others.

Subscribers can explore complete lecture series including:

  • Bibliology and Archaeology

  • Introduction to Islam

  • Church History

  • Life of Christ

  • Worship Leadership

  • Deuteronomy

  • Revelation

  • 2 Corinthians

  • 1 and 2 Chronicles

Together, these courses provide access to years of biblical instruction that helped shape generations of CCBC students.

Who Is the Legacy Library For?

The Legacy Library is for anyone who wants substantial Bible teaching without enrolling in a degree program.

It may be especially useful for:

  • Christians who want to understand Scripture more deeply

  • Pastors, ministry leaders, and church volunteers

  • Adults balancing work and family responsibilities

  • Former CCBC students and alumni

  • People who have been away from formal education

  • Prospective students who want to explore Bible college teaching

  • Anyone who prefers flexible, self-paced learning

A college program includes academic accountability, required reading, assignments, faculty feedback, interaction, and an organized path toward a degree. Those elements are valuable, but they are not what every learner needs.

The Legacy Library provides another option: access to complete course lectures without the obligations of college enrollment.

How Can You Use the Legacy Library?

Because the library is self-paced, you can study the Bible online in the way that best fits your schedule.

You might:

  • Work through one lecture each week

  • Study a particular book of the Bible

  • Explore a theological question

  • Prepare for an area of church service

  • Watch a course with a spouse or friend

  • Discuss what you are learning with a pastor or small group

  • Revisit a subject you previously studied at CCBC

Keep your Bible open, take notes, record questions, and consider how each lesson should shape your beliefs and practice.

At CCBC, the Bible is our primary textbook. The purpose of the Legacy Library is not merely to provide more content. It is to help people know God and understand His Word.

Is the Legacy Library a Degree Program?

No. The Legacy Library does not provide academic credit, grades, transcripts, certificates, or progress toward a CCBC degree.

Students seeking an Associate or Bachelor of Biblical Studies should explore CCBC’s current campus and online programs. Those programs provide a coordinated curriculum, academic feedback, community, accountability, and a path toward graduation.

The Legacy Library serves a different purpose. It is for people who want to learn without becoming college students.

For some, it may also provide a helpful introduction to sustained biblical study before deciding whether to pursue a degree.

How Much Does It Cost?

A Legacy Library subscription currently costs:

  • $15 per month

  • $120 per year

There is no long-term commitment, and you can cancel your subscription at any time.

You might subscribe to study one particular book or subject, or remain subscribed and work your way through the entire collection at your own pace.

Your subscription provides on-demand access to complete lectures from more than 60 past CCBC courses, and most courses include a free preview lesson.
