The Institute for Christian Studies is located at Hope Church. 

Our mission is to “make disciples” as the Lord commanded. 
At BICS that means applying God’s Word to a young believers
life through systematic accountability within intellectual and
behavioral disciplines
 
For us, “discipleship” means engaging young people in
ministry and evangelism, classroom learning, personal
counseling, vocational planning, and first-hand exploration
of the lands of the Bible.  These dimensions and more make
this one-year program an energetic environment for spiritual growth.
