Mission Statement

Summit Christian College, an institution of higher learning, educates people for Christian leadership.

History:

Platte Valley Bible College was incorporated in 1951 at Scottsbluff, Nebraska. In August 2005, the college was renamed Summit Christian College to more accurately reflect her mission. SCC is determined to be more than a regional college, as she endeavors to broaden her horizons and educate Christian leaders beyond the borders of the Platte Valley. Indeed, the college is helping a new generation of leaders ascend to new summits in their personal and professional lives. SCC is a nontraditional college for leaders who are serious about pursuing a life calling to leadership.

The first academic year began with Dr. Ellis Baker as the first president. Classes were held in the facilities of the Church at Bryant until 1953, when the college moved to 1702 4th Avenue.

For many years, a program of Medical Missions was the unique contribution of the college to the efforts of the Christian Church in the area of world evangelism. A lack of demand and personnel for medical missions allowed the college to transition fully into her mission of educating leaders for Christian service. The efforts of those dedicated men and women who conducted and staffed the Medical Missions course of study in former years are sincerely appreciated. They provided a valuable service in the kingdom of God.
