The Bible & Training Institute of Michigan was conceived by the Holy Spirit in 2000 in answer to a cry from the harvest fields of the world for materials geared for training both the average layman and pastors. The Institute is birthing a vision designed to move laymen from vision to reality. The curriculum takes students beyond teaching to training where participation is required. The participation to which students are challenged is that of spiritual reproduction. Jesus’ final command was to reproduce spiritually (Matt. 23:19-20). BTIM is not as inclusive as a traditional Bible Institute because it eliminates materials not directly related to spiritual growth and productivity. We are not in competition with the traditional Bible Institute structure but our training is for laymen and women who do not have opportunities, educationally and/or financially, for such training. The Institute equips students with creative Bible study skills to enable continued study of Scriptures following basic course training, leading to undergraduate and graduate studies. But the primary focus of BTIM is teaching what Jesus taught to move men from observation to demonstration of the power of God.
