Cornerstone bible
What is CBI?
Cornerstone Bible Institute is for anyone who desires a deeper understanding of the Bible while developing a deeper walk with God. In an adult education setting, courses are designed to be at a college level without having to commit to full-time studies or great financial outlays. Students can take up to two 90-minute classes each semester, following the posted schedule.
Since classes are college level, instruction is lecture style and includes outside reading, additional research, and periodic exams. Our goal is to make these classes financially and academically accessible while giving students greater levels of understanding of the Christian walk and life.
Classes for Fall 2024 begin the week of September 8 and continue through December 14. Any adjustment in class schedules for holidays or other circumstances will be addressed by each professor in class.

Every Christian is gifted with a spiritual gift at the time of salvation so he or she is equipped and
empowered to fulfill God’s Mission of reconciling others to Him.
There are 18 specific spiritual gifts identified in Scripture: 5 Miracle, 4 Enabling, and 9 Ministry/Team gifts. We will learn about and review each of the gifts with emphasis on the Ministry gifts for serving Jesus and others today. The course includes a “spiritual gifts survey” with discussion on how each gift, applied to each believer’s calling and unique purpose, is used to grow God’s Kingdom.
