History
The School was founded in 1990, by Revd Christopher B. Smith. Initially the focus was on classroom-based teaching at the college premises in Wolverhampton, near Birmingham, England, but has since shifted to focus entirely upon e-learning. In 2008 the name of the college was changed from Midlands Bible College and Divinity School to reflect its seminary-level studies and a Master of Arts programme in Theology.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“In history an additional result is commonly produced by human actions beyond that which they aim at and obtain—that which they immediately recognize and desire. They gratify their own interest; but something further is thereby accomplished, latent in the actions in question, though not present to their consciousness, and not included in their design.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“While the Republic has already acquired a history world-wide, America is still unsettled and unexplored. Like the English in New Holland, we live only on the shores of a continent even yet, and hardly know where the rivers come from which float our navy.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“He wrote in prison, not a History of the World, like Raleigh, but an American book which I think will live longer than that. I do not know of such words, uttered under such circumstances, and so copiously withal, in Roman or English or any history.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
