Join us for “The Institute” and Christian Education Hour
Would you like to take the next step in Christian discipleship? Do you know someone who has probing questions about the Christian worldview? The Institute for Intellectual Formation and Skeptical Inquiry was established to advance the discipline of intellectual formation (or “shaping of the mind”) within the local Christian community, and to answer questions raised by the skeptically-minded. At THE INSTITUTE, student participants and seekers will benefit from a program of study that explores a wide range of philosophical, theological, and culturally relevant questions. If you or someone you know would be interesting in learning more about The Institute, please join us on Sunday mornings at 9:45 am and Monday evenings at 6:00 pm and find more information and current event schedule on their website at http://theinstitutefw.org/
