“Since I came to know Finny Philip in the late 1990s I have been an interested admirer of the Filadelfia Bible College, of which he told me. When he completed his excellent PhD and returned to India he has kept me informed of developments in the College and of the great work being done there in training pastors for established and new churches. It is an exciting and inspiring story. The challenges confronting pioneering and nurturing ministries in north India I can appreciate only from outside, but I can well imagine that they are considerable. But the training at FBC will, I am sure, prepare students in knowledge and understanding of Christianity and in the disciplines and skills needed for Christian leadership, in north India, as anywhere else. This comes with my best wishes and prayers, alike for students and faculty, and for the future of FBC”
