Dear Friends,


The Board wants to share with you our excitement and optimism for the future. We are writing to announce that Scott Lerwick has been selected as the eleventh President of Boise Bible College. Please join us in celebrating this moment in the history of BBC as we welcome President Lerwick into this important position!

When Dr. Voorhees made the difficult decision to step down as President at the end of 2023, we prayerfully began a process of discerning who God would have as the next president. Selecting a president has been both challenging and rewarding. 

It has been challenging because we understand the importance and weight of this decision, with implications that will affect the college far into the future. It has been rewarding in that we witnessed God’s provision and leading every step along the way.

Throughout this process, Scott has demonstrated that he is a leader who loves BBC. He has also shown that he has a vision to see the school continue to raise up Kingdom workers who share the Gospel of Jesus with a lost world and lead in Jesus’ Church.

Scott is a graduate of Ozark Christian College and holds a Master of Arts in Christian Leadership from Hope International University. In addition to his academic achievements, before joining BBC, he served in ministry for eighteen years, fifteen of those in the Pacific Northwest.

Scott served as BBC’s VP of Institutional Advancement for two years before accepting the role of Acting President in January 2024. His leadership as Acting President has been seen and felt by students, faculty, and staff, as well as church partners throughout the west. Scott loves Jesus, loves the church, and has a heart to see the Gospel spread throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

As he steps into this position, it is with humility that the Board of Directors asks you to join with us in praying for Scott, his leadership, and for the future of Boise Bible College. More than ever, we need a Bible college in the Pacific Northwest that will continue to train people for the important work of ministry. This is Scott’s passion, and we are confident that his leadership as the President of Boise Bible College will make a huge impact for God’s Kingdom in the years to come!

Scott's inauguration will be held on campus in the Dr. Charles A. Crane Chapel, on Thursday, September 19, 2024, at 7:00 PM. We would be honored if you would join us. Sunday attire requested. Refreshments will be served afterwards.


Sincerely,

Nick Duffel

Chairman, BBC Board of Directors
