The visionary heart

IBTS has a specific intentionality which has been developing and growing throughout its life, but in a more co-ordinated way since 1997. This intentionality might be described as the visionary heart of all that IBTS seeks to accomplish. It is an integrated whole which cannot be split asunder by what might be considered false walls of the faith community, academia, mission, church development, spirituality and community. Though the visionary heart is described below in specific sub sections this should not be seen as a dividing up of that which is intentionally held together as a seamless robe.

Offered in service

We have tried to set out what is unique about IBTS in the first years of the twenty first century. We do not do this to claim superiority, but to offer to the wider Baptist and Christian community a proper assessment of what can be offered by IBTS in service to the churches, the Unions and the wider mission of the Christian community.
