Bible Survey
This course is designed to give the students “tools for life.” Students will gain an overview of the biblical story, will be exposed to various Bible study tools and guided in how to use them. They will learn to give an introduction to a book of the Bible. They will learn the basic principles of Bible interpretation and employ them in interpreting the various genre found in the Bible. Students will have ample opportunity to put into practice these new found skills in doing daily devotions for most of the year.
Church History
This course is designed to lead students through Church history chronologically, starting with the apostolic church and extending to the present day. Attention is also given to the development and formulation of the major doctrines in the Church's history.

Systematic Theology
This class is a study of the great doctrines of the Bible. The class is structured around a Christian world and life view. Students will learn what is meant by a worldview, how to build one and be able to distinguish a secular worldview from a Christian worldview. Students will examine how the present culture effects a Christian worldview. Students will study the doctrines under the seven primary divisions found in systematic theology: Holy Scriptures, theology, anthropology, Christology, soteriology, ecclesiology, and eschatology. Students will also study the subject of biblical prayer as structured after the Lord's Prayer and practice writing their own biblical prayers.
Apologetics and Ethics
This course is designed to equip students to engage unbelievers in dialogue that is compelling, compassionate, and glorifying to God. Students will also be prepared to confront the many, sometimes antagonistic, world and life views they will encounter in the college classroom, college dorm, and work place. Finally, students will explore a number of ethical issues from a biblical perspective. The students will finish the year by completing the Senior Thesis, an extended research paper bringing a biblical worldview perspective to bear on a contemporary social/ethical issue.
