In the IBI, we lay a foundation for ministry through adult elective courses in systematic theology, church history, Bible survey, and practical theology. The subjects are often provocative and contemporary, addressing the needs of our day with biblical truth.

Knowing what you believe and why you believe it is essential for every Christian. “Deep, rich, and well-organized,” “essential in my walk with Jesus,” “grew together as a couple by doing the homework,” and “the best Christian principles class I have taken,” are some of the comments from prior students.
Whether you are a seeker, new believer, or a Christian wanting theological grounding, FoF Part 1 explores the basic questions: Who is God and what is He like? What is the Bible, and how did we get it? What is salvation and why do I need it? I think I’m a Christian, but how can I know for sure? FoF Part 1 integrates the Fundamentals of the Faith (Moody Press) curriculum, audio messages by Dr. John MacArthur and classroom discussion with comprehensive notes to build believers and future leaders at Immanuel.
The Fundamentals of the Faith, Parts 1 and 2, is Immanuel’s “flagship” course, since it thoroughly explains what we believe. It is strongly recommended for every Immanuel member, especially those who teach in any capacity. (13 weeks)
