Informational Brochure
The Biblical Institute of the Diocese of Joliet is a 4-year program to study
every book of the Bible. We use one of the best Catholic Bible studies
ever developed for learning about Scripture in a systematic way,
the Catholic Biblical School program.
If you’d like to study the Bible as a whole and in its parts from a Catholic point of view, with an experienced instructor, and within a Catholic faith community,
we invite you to join a Year 1 class this fall.
The Biblical Institute is for everyone!
Some of our students serve their parishes as catechists, lectors, or Bible study facilitators—but many have no Bible study background at all.
All you need is a commitment to learning and a desire for
deeper understanding of God’s word.
Try the first two years (Old Testament and New Testament Foundations)
and decide later whether to stay for Years 3 and 4 (the rest of the Bible).

"BIDJ makes the Bible come alive. To hear and see the Bible in this way
is unlike anything I have ever done. It is truly the Bible made touchable."
