Give

Our primary objective is to equip Christians to do the work of ministry. All our courses offer students biblically grounded training focused on the needs of the local church. We depend on partners like you to make this training accessible. By supporting CBI, your giving has an immediate and eternal impact.

Ways to Support CBI:

You are always welcome to make your gift on our website (Electronic Check/ACH or Credit/Debit Card).

  1. We accept checks! These can be made payable to Compass Bible Institute and sent to: Compass Bible Institute, 145 Columbia Aliso Viejo, CA 92656

  2. Gifting with appreciated stock allows you to avoid paying capital gains taxes while earning a charitable deduction. Please contact us at finance@compassinst.org if you are interested in giving appreciated stock or other assets.

  3. Donors age 70 ½ or older may be interested in making charitable gifts directly from their retirement accounts and avoiding paying taxes on the withdrawal (known as qualified charitable distributions). For those age 73 and older, IRA gifts can count toward the required minimum distribution—if made directly to the Institute.

  4. Contact us at finance@compassinst.org if you would like more information regarding electronic transfers, CBI’s tax ID, or have any questions.

Please keep in mind that all deductible contributions to Compass Bible Institute for this calendar year need to be received or postmarked on or before Friday December 31. Please contact Ryan Hawley with any questions you may have with regard to gifts that may include appreciated stocks, real estate, cryptocurrency, business interests or other valuable assets. Thank you for being generous to Compass Bible Institute.

Please note that based on current IRS regulations, Compass Bible Institute retains the right to control all funds donated.

Learn What Makes CBI Unique

Your generous gift will go directly towards training the next generation of pastors, missionaries, and Christian leaders for gospel ministry.

Fewer and fewer options exist for those who want a thorough preparation for ministry at a school of higher education which has not compromised its view of God’s inspired word. Compass Bible Institute (CBI) is a Christian educational organization that will remain faithful until the Lord’s return to the view of the inerrancy of Scripture that Christ himself possessed.

While there are like-minded Bible colleges and seminaries which offer distance education, nothing replaces the in-person classroom interaction between students and professors.

At Compass Bible Institute we have the opportunity to immerse students in an in-person classroom setting that is also inextricably connected to the active ministry of Compass Bible Church Aliso Viejo. This is a rare and, in many ways, ideal solution for theological education.
