BIBLE TRAINING INSTITUTE (BTI) is the educational department of The Church of God. 

    BTI offers correspondence courses which can be ordered through the Merchandise Department.  These courses are great for individual or group study and help to understand WHO is THE CHURCH OF GOD, Her Prominent Teachings, and Her Mission, and other courses which assist the saints to be all we can be for the Lord.

    Additionally, BTI offers a two week session on campus at The Church of God Headquarters in Cleveland, Tennessee.  This session is also taken to BTI schools around the world. The two week school includes three succeeding terms teaching classes on such subjects as Bible Doctrine, Church Doctrine, the Auxiliaries of the Church, Church Business, and Pastoral/Leadership.  After graduating from Term 3, a fourth term is available for further study in leadership and special ministries.

    The newest of these compact and intense terms is Leadership Pastoral Development (LPD) where ministers and aspiring leaders can become more knowledgeable and able in their field of work for the Lord.

    We invite each of you to take advantage of both avenues of BTI - the Correspondence Courses, and the Cleveland School.  Remember, we are each commanded to "go...teach...preach" whether as pastors, mission ambassadors, neighbors, parents, friends.  There is a work for each of us.  We must equip ourselves with all God offers so that we can do as His Son, Jesus did - the very best that we can.
