My sons attended BIOLA. They enjoyed it. This was 15 years ago. They weren’t woke back then but my oldest son said he could see it coming. Well, it’s come. It used to be a conservative college that taught biblical truth, but it is no longer. I personally know parents who sent their children there in the past ten years, and these children are now living in openly sodomite relationships.

Here is what Alisa Childers wrote on her Facebook page about BIOLA:

In a recent podcast, I stated that I can’t recommend parents send their students to Biola. Many people wrote in and asked me to explain why. Here’s a start.

First, Biola’s statement on sexuality states:

“Students desiring to live in Biola-owned housing will be placed based on their sex at birth. However, as issues connected to sexuality and gender are complex and layered, we will walk with students on an individual basis who identify as transgender or experience dissonance with their biological sex and gender in order to provide helpful support, to arrive at decisions around facilities use, and to offer appropriate accountability….We also ask that transgender individuals refrain from the process of a medical transition during their time at Biola.”

From Chimes, Biola’s online student-run newspaper:

“The Dwelling is a Biola-sanctioned place where students who are LGBTQ or who experience same-sex attraction come together for community and support as they walk with Jesus at Biola…What we aren’t is 1.) a place that sponsors conversion therapy or whose primary goal is to move people out of the LGBTQ community, or 2.) a place that is subversive of Biola’s positions on sexuality and gender…Members of The Dwelling usually hold diverse theological perspectives on sexuality. Some members hold an affirming position, while others hold a non-affirming view.”

In a couple of days, they will be having Rich Villodas speak at an evening for spiritual formation. Villodas has praised Richard Rohr as “a person/writer I really respect,” and made problematic statements about Charlie Kirk:

He acknowledges that Charlie spoke “passionately about Jesus Christ,” but then Villodas goes on to write, “I’ve also seen videos of him using words that have caused great harm to black and brown people, to Muslims, and to LGBTQ people.”

Biola still has some good and faithful people there, but I cannot recommend it as a safe place to send your kids.

Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
1 Corinthians 6:14-18
