The Institute

The Institute for Intellectual Formation and Skeptical Inquiry was established to advance the discipline of intellectual formation within the local Christian community and to create a welcoming environment for skeptically-minded individuals to engage in dialogue on questions at the intersection of religion and culture. The institute is a privately funded resource for publicly accessible religious education, with a focus on the renewal and transformation of the mind in accordance with biblical teachings. It emphasizes the importance of intellectual growth and the pursuit of knowledge as part of the practice of discipleship within the Christian faith.
