A new $8.5 million dollar religious training center opening this week in Chattanooga has a foundation built on the Bible. Quite literally.
Builders of the headquarters of the International Congress of Churches and Ministers planted a thousand Bibles in the walls, ceilings and sidewalks of the new building.

The nonprofit offers churches and ministers training, including classes on fasting and prayer, and a quote "millionaire wealth seminar."

Sure, the new facility may be inside a former Circuit City store on Lee Highway, but it's quite an elegant place.

The lobby includes a wooden table appointed from Italy and an onyx floor imported from Israel. And the biggest sanctuary will offer stadium seating.

The founder of ICCM says the center is debt-free, and the lavish interior is to meant to help people feel successful.
