Curriculum

Like a Bible college, the Biblical Institute for Laymen is designed with four levels of courses, from the most basic (100-level, or freshman courses) to the more advanced (400-level, or senior courses). Any course listed below with an asterisk* is one previously taught that has been video-taped and is available on DVD. If you are interested in the DVDs, please contact us at the email address in the left column.
