About The Institute
The Institute is a learning environment that encourages spiritual growth with a deeper understanding of the Christian faith. Core Classes teach the foundations of our faith and are offered at all Crosspoint City locations twice a semester. Seminary-Style Courses engage and equip believers through in-depth exploration of Church doctrine, Biblical studies, and leadership development. Elective Courses are topical studies that will vary each semester. Both Seminary-Style and Elective Courses are offered at our Cartersville location.

Class Expectations
At The Institute, our prayer is that God would not only teach you more about Him but also transform you from the inside out. As usual, we ask each student to arrive on time, be prepared and be present at ALL scheduled classes. Some of the best learning comes from conversations had by students in the classroom. In addition, you will have reading assignments that will need to be completed at home.
The estimated time to complete reading and occasional homework should be around 1-2 hours per week. (It depends a lot on the student and the workload for the week). While this could seem like a daunting endeavor, to give you perspective, the average person spends 1.5 hours on social media daily. We think you can do it!
