Equipping believers to know, love, and serve God through theological education.
Explore The Institute
The Christ Community Institute is a one-year discipleship program that equips believers to know, love, and obey God through theological training in the context of the local church. The Institute’s curriculum focuses on three areas of discipleship—Christian Story, Christian Belief, and Christian Formation. The Christ Community Institute runs for one year in two semesters where we will focus on three specific subjects.

What You’ll Learn
Institute courses are offered on Wednesday nights from 6:30-8:00pm during the fall and spring. We understand that participation in the Institute is a big commitment, but we ask that participants do their very best to attend all class meetings and complete their assignments to get the most out of their experience. The yearlong program is $200 and covers the cost of books, resources, and other materials.
Christian Story
God has made Himself known through His Word.
Over these nine months, we’re going to walk through the big story of the Bible—the key moments in God’s redemptive plan. As we do, we’ll see more clearly who God is and what He’s done to bring us back to Himself through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
Christian Belief
What we believe flows from what God has said.
As we move through Scripture, we’ll slow down to understand the core doctrines of the Christian faith. Not as abstract ideas, but as truths rooted in the story of the Bible—truths that ground us, shape us, and give clarity to what it means to follow Jesus.
Christian Formation
What God says transforms how we live.
This isn’t just about knowing the story or understanding doctrine—it’s about becoming the kind of people who live in the way of Jesus. Our aim is to be formed into servants, worshipers, committed members, and disciple-makers—people who don’t just know the gospel, but are fluent in it.
