Eastern Michigan Nazarene Bible Institute exists to train men and women for ministry in the Church of Jesus Christ generally and for the Eastern Michigan District Church of the Nazarene specifically. This mission is fulfilled by providing classroom-based education in local Churches of the Nazarene, taught by practicing, qualified ministerial professionals.

Courses are taught at a post-secondary level using curriculum and academic procedures approved by Nazarene Bible College, Colorado. Persons completing the approved courses of studies will receive a certificate of completion, signifying that they have finished the educational requirements for ordination in the Church of the Nazarene as Elder or Deacon, or as lay ministers for a local church.
