New Brunswick Bible Institute, commonly called NBBI, is a conservative, evangelical Bible college that exists to educate Christian students in a thorough knowledge of the Bible as well as provide them with practical vocational training for ministry.

The 100-acre (0.40 km2) NBBI campus is located in rural Victoria Corner, New Brunswick, Canada and is situated along the western bank of the scenic Saint John River between the towns of Hartland and and just 35 km (22 mi) from the international border with the United States at Houlton, Maine.

New Brunswick Bible Institute traces its historic roots back to the ministry of nineteenth century evangelist D. L. Moody, whose passion for equipping Christians with a practical Bible education influenced a generation of pioneers who carried that same desire across North America and Europe.NBBI was part of that movement when it was founded in 1944 by Rev. John Parschauer and a group of Christian men who saw the need in the Canadian Maritime provinces for a Bible-centered school that could train young men and women and send them forth to evangelize. The school began that fall with an enrollment of ten students in its three-year Biblical and Theological Studies Program. Rev. Parschauer later went on to start the Bibelschule Brake in Lemgo, Germany in 1959.
