From Dust to Glory: An Introduction to the Story of the Bible
This introductory course explores the major themes, events, and people that are brought to life in the Bible. Special emphasis will be placed on the opening chapters of Genesis. As the first book of the Bible, Genesis initiates a grand story. Setting the scene, it provides information that helps the reader understand all that follows.
Understanding the Old Testament
A survey of Old Testament people, places, and events. This class highlights God’s redemptive storyline, and how every page of Scripture points us to Jesus.
The Life of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke
This course provides a chronological account of the life of Christ, showing us who Jesus is and how He fulfills His mission. The life of Christ, though only 30-some years long and only containing three years of public ministry, proclaimed to the whole world that God had come to live among us to give His life that we might be His own.
Paul’s Letter to the Romans
The study of the Book of Romans has often proven to be a life-changing exercise. Throughout the history of the church, lives have been radically transformed through the impact of Paul’s great work. The Book of Romans stands as the clearest presentation of Christian doctrine in all the Scriptures. It is one of the most important and influential books in the entire Bible. Martin Luther called Romans, “The chief part of the New Testament, and the very purest gospel.”
Life and Death
C.S. Lewis once wrote that, “The Christians who did most for the present world were those who thought most of the next.” In this course we will peer into the great mystery of what our eternal life will be like. Topics include: heaven, hell, death, the resurrection of the body, judgment day, the new heaven and new earth, the return of Christ.
