    NTI Students

    "It's hard to imagine how part-time theological study could get any better!"

    "NTI has been extremely useful, teaching us to do theology in the context of local church ministry and giving us the solid foundations we need."

    "NTI was the perfect solution to my situation. I was co-leading a local church and working part-time so I wasn’t in a position to take three years out for Bible college. I needed a flexible approach to study and NTI was the answer!"

    NTI Students

    "NTI is both rigorous and practical in its study of theology: a safe forum to explore theological ideas and test assumptions under the authority of Scripture."

    "The monthly seminar days have been invaluable to my learning and applying learning to my context. I have very much enjoyed learning alongside fellow practitioners. NTI is great!"

    NTI Students

    "NTI has helped us gain a sound biblical theological understanding, but also left us room to reflect at some length on theological issues pertinent to our own current and future ministry situations."

    "The seminar days and residentials have been especially helpful: great fun as well as great learning, and real times of sharpening one another as iron sharpens iron."

    "Superb value for money!"

    NTI Students

    "I’d recommend NTI to anyone."

    "NTI has been a real blessing. Everything we study is directly applicable to the world we are involved with in the church."

    "If I’d set out to design a training programme ideally suited for me it would be NTI."
