Scholarship in Service of the Church
Meet Dr. Bottone
Carlo Bottone, Ph.D., is a former university professor of Latin, classical Greek, and Western literary traditions. After years of teaching in conventional academic halls, Dr. Bottone founded Western Tradition Bible Academy to solve a widespread problem in classical Christian education: the disconnect between rigorous scholarship and accessible, living faith.
Bringing sacred languages out of the academic ivory tower and placing them directly into the hands of everyday believers.
The Open-Table Philosophy
Traditional academic language instruction frequently bogs students down in exhaustive grammatical drills, abstract paradigm charts, and years of isolated memorization before they ever read a meaningful sentence. The academy’s open-table approach reverses this model entirely. By sitting together around authentic passages from the Latin Vulgate and apostolic Greek texts on Day 1, students discover that language acquisition can be natural, deeply meaningful, and collaborative.
