The High Pointe Institute (HPI) is a one-year (two semester) discipleship program meant to offer a pathway for growing disciples to be equipped for ministry both in the church and the world. The goal is to form mature disciples who are growing in their knowledge and love for God, who take ownership of High Pointe’s ministries and mission, and who are committed to helping others follow Christ. This program will instill a commitment to Scripture and a better grasp of the biblical storyline, a solid foundation in Christian doctrine, and an increasing ability to connect theology to one’s life, worship, and mission.
What will be taught?
This semester we begin with Systematic Theology as a foundation Christian thinking and living for all areas of life. We will be working through the foundations of Systematic Theology over the course of a year. This will not be a mere exercise of academic theology but a guided journey encouraging learning that includes applications to all of life.
Who is HPI for?
HPI is designed for growing disciples of Christ who desire to be equipped for ministry and mission in whatever context God has placed them. All men and women are encouraged to participate. HPI is designed with High Pointe members in mind as a preparation for service and leadership.
When does HPI take place?
HPI classes take place on Wednesday nights from 6:30-8:30 pm during the fall and spring semesters. Each semester is 14 weeks.
