    Anybody know what happened to the Worldwide Church of God? Didn't they have a bible college at one time?

    I remember the founder, Herbert W. Armstrong, who died some years ago. One of his sons, Garner Ted Armstrong, used to be on TV as a spokesperson for the church. I seem to recall that GTA became dissassociated with his father and the institution at some point. Just curious where this story ends.

    Thanks

    This denomination's journey is one of the most remarkable stories of the last decade within evangelicalism. Please read an updated history of the Worldwide Church of God at this link:

    Following the changes that this group has undergone, an undergraduate study center has been created at Azusa Pacific University for its theological students. In addition, I believe that several of its members have been going to places like Fuller to receive advanced theological training.

    This was Ambassador College. Founded by the late Herbert W. Armstrong, and closed in the late nineties.

    Who can forget The Grand Fornicator, Garner Ted Armstrong!

    Does anyone know if Ambassador College was ever accredited? It seems to me that at time the college never mentioned accreditation.
