What is the Institute’s purpose?
Its purpose is to help individuals in communities across North Carolina and America to regain their lost liberties by understanding and passing on to their children the fundamental principles on which our Constitutional Republic was founded.

The focal point of each session is a thirty-minute video lecture by Dr. John Eidsmoe, professor of constitutional law at the Thomas Goode Jones School of Law at Faulkner University in Montgomery, Alabama. There are review questions to reinforce the concepts taught, and there are probing discussion questions. During many of the sessions, current events in light of our Constitution are also discussed.

What do I need to attend this Institute?
If an Institute is announced in your area, apart from a modest fee to cover the cost of the materials, all that’s needed on your part is a teachable spirit and faithfulness to attend the sessions and participate in the discussion.

How much does the Institute cost?
The Institute enrollment fee is $30.00 per individual and $45.00 per married couple. Even at the individual rate, this is only $2.50 per session – unbeatable by any standard. The session host donates his time to this Institute, and no one benefits personally from the enrollment fees. All fees pay for the materials received and for the costs involved in having the Institute.
