Opportunities for Higher Education Through the Bethlehem Institute

February 6, 2008  |  By: Tyler Kenney  |  Category: Conferences, Recommendations

This morning The Bethlehem Institute (TBI) hosted an informative breakout session. TBI is a ministry of Bethlehem Baptist Church that seeks to spread a passion for the supremacy of God through higher education.

They offer three tracks for educational development:

1) Track 1: Leadership Training. This track is for anyone in the church who wants to be better equipped for mission work, teaching Sunday school, etc. The four courses offered in this track have been turned into curricula that will soon be available to order.

2) Track 2: Vocational Elder Training. This track offers seminary level education in a church context. Students learn to diagram and arc in Greek, read Hebrew, and learn preaching with John Piper. They are also involved in ministry at Bethlehem and mentored by a pastor. Graduates have gone into Christian academics, pastoring, and missions. There is also now a worship pastor concentration.

3) Track 3: Academic Credit Programs. This includes INSIGHT, a fully accredited equivalent to a freshman or sophomore year of college. There are also options for earning a B.A. in Global Studies or an M.A. in International Development.
