Old Testament Survey

This course is designed to present survey knowledge about the Old Testament. The word “Testament” carries with it the ideas of contract, covenant, and will. What an appropriate word to describe God’s communication to His creation. The fact that there is both an Old and New Testament simply testifies to the truth that God has spoken to His creation through time and in different ways.
As we follow God’s works and hear His words in the Old Testament we shall endeavor to observe the way the Bible characters responded to God’s intervention and communication. Our desire is that we can gain more than just an appreciation of our great God as we progress through the Bible, but that we will be challenged to insight and personal application in our relationship with the Creator.

New Testament Survey

This course is designed to explore God’s Word, the Bible, through a presentation of the New Testament books. During the study, the student will be exposed to such things as: a biographical sketch of Jesus Christ’s ministry as presented in the Gospels, outlines of selected books, Bible authors’ themes or purpose of writing, and highlights of principal Biblical characters.
At the same time, we will observe doctrinal teachings, principles, and practical insights that transcend all time. Students will come to grips with the reality of God’s truths about Himself and His plan as revealed within the human drama of first century Christianity, and yet relevantly applicable today.
