Our story

 Under the direction of Rev. Arthur W. Archibald , SETECEB was created in 1938, having as its original name the “Instituto Bíblico Goiano” . Its headquarters was initially installed in a farm called “Boa Semente”. It was later transferred to its current address, in Anápolis, GO. In 1951 it was legally organized under the name of “Bible Seminary Goiano” (SBG) and only in 1986 received the current name, Evangelical Christian Theological Seminary of Brazil (SETECEB).
