INSTE
INSTE, the Institute of Theology by Extension, allows Christians to grow in their faith through intense study of the Bible. Level one INSTE includes Discipleship, The Old and New Testament, and Doctrine and takes two years to complete. Upon completing level one, students may continue on to level two which includes Church Leadership, History, and Administration, and many other Biblical and practical courses intended to develop those called to a leadership position in the Church. INSTE is led by facilitators who are trained, also having completed INSTE themselves. Rev. Larry Janda is our INSTE Coordinator.
