LM Institute exists because...

We believe discipleship can and should happen primarily in the context of the local church.  Our goal is to make the Bible and theology accessible to everyone through transformative learning environments within the church.  From one-time forums to a year-long intensive discipleship program, all classes are designed to help pursue what we believe is necessary for all disciples: bible, doctrine, and spiritual formation. The basics of LM Institute begin with our 3 core classes:  Gospel story, Gospel belief and Gospel formation.  

We’re excited that you’re interested in LM Institute! Our hope is that participation in LMI will lead to deeper love of God, His Word, and others, increased biblical and theological formation, and greater passion and preparation for missional living.

Core Classes

Believers need good foundations to grow.  LM Institute offers three Core Classes to help people internalize their faith and connect it practically to everyday life. Our Core Classes are for everyone, and can be taken in any order.

Intro to Church History

Next Offering: TBA
Most Christians know little about the history of the Church. As a result, they’re missing a testament to God’s steadfast faithfulness throughout the centuries. Church history is not about names, dates, and facts. It is about the flesh and blood people of God and the life and death issues that have shaped our struggles and joys for two thousand years.

Timothy Paul Jones begins Christian History Made Easy with a chapter entitled, “The Gospels, the Apostles, Then . . . What?”. Over 11 weeks we will learn about the history of the Church through the people and moments that have shaped it. The history of the Church is sometimes absurd and sometimes inspiring, yet always exciting and covered with God’s amazing grace.
