Training disciples,
growing churches
Providing theological training to believers
around Latin America… right where they live!
TIBI
Theological training done
in context
We literally connect to living rooms or church classrooms through live interactive video conferencing. Students don’t have to leave their families or churches for years to adapt to a new country.
Students remain active in their home congregations, applying what they learn in real-time. When they study and do practical work, it immediately benefits their families and churches.

“…For me, finding a way to study for a degree in theology was a huge challenge. After years of prayer, I decided to speak with our preacher Tony about my desire. He told me that his wife was the TIBI representative in Cuba and the next day, she contacted me and got my information to sign me up. This was in 2020, at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. My wife and I dedicated ourselves to learning more about God’s Word. In 2023, we received our Christian Workers certificate.
