We are a conservative evangelical institute for the advancement of biblical studies and for equipping church leaders for Christian ministry.
Mission Statement
What do we do?
We offer 8-week courses in the following Focus groups leading
toward a certificate in that Focus Group or for personal enrichment
Biblical Introduction
Church History
Theology
Biblical Languages

Preaching and Ministry
Practical Theology
How it works:
Our goal is to offer affordable, high quality and effective instruction in person to individuals interested in either deepening their knowledge of the scriptures or entering full-time ministry. We do this by offering courses in 12-hour formats on an eight-week basis with every class being 90 minutes long. Courses can be taken by a variety of individuals and age groups either to complete a certificate in that focus area, certificates in multiple focus areas or for personal growth. Classes are currently designed to be taken in person to encourage interaction and facilitate student to instructor relationships. However, classes will also be available on-line as well as in person as we grow and expand our outreach.
