Starting today, November 4, 2014, Trinity House Institute of Birmingham, Alabama, takes a new name, the Theopolis Institute.
The Theopolis Institute trains pastors and Christian leaders through intensive courses in biblical theology and liturgics, encourages unity in the church with its ecumenical Nevin Lecture series, and advances theological scholarship with essays on its web site and in its e-newsletter, In Medias Res.
The new name better communicates the Institute’s unique vision and mission, and captures the unified purpose behind its various programs and activities.
Theopolis comes from two Greek words, “God” and “city.” It expresses the Institute’s hope that as the Spirit works through the Word, Liturgy, and pastoral care, the world becomes more like the city of God—the Institute seeks reformation in the church and transformation in our culture.
Theopolis’s elegant new logo, designed by CREVIN AMD of Missoula, Montana, symbolizes the Institute’s aims in visual form. The logo depicts the heavenly city of God reflected below the firmament, imprinting a cross on heaven and earth.
