New Testament Survey II (3 Credits) -
This class is a survey of the New Testament books from Acts - Revelation, including their historical background: authorship; date written;
the purpose of each book; as well as how they became a part of the New Testament. We will see that the New Testament is God's
final revelation to man and how it presents the fulfillments of all Old Testament prophecy. New Testament I is not a prerequisite for
this class. All are welcome to attend. Bring a friend.
Instructor: Prof. Dick J. Wilson, B.Th., M. Div., D.D.
The Epistle to the Galatians (3 Credits) -
In this class we will study Paul's letter to the Galatians, as if it were written to us today. You will find that this is probably
his sternest defense against false teaching. He bares his heart in an effort to teach these Christians the Truth of God (Gal. 4:19)
as he presents the Doctrine of Justification by Faith Alone; that the Grace of God, by Faith Alone in Jesus Christ offers salvation to all
who simply believe in Him, as their God and Savior.
Instructor: Prof. Gary K. Heald, B.Th., M.Div.
The Gospel of John: Part III (3 Credits) -
This class offers an in-depth study of the Gospel of John with emphasis on the deity of Jesus Christ and His love
for all people. This class will be a verse-by-verse devotional study that you will treasure for years
to come. We will study chapters 15-21, so bring your Bible, notebook and a friend.
Instructor: Prof. John M. Bryant, B.S., M.S., Ph.D.
Biblical Counseling III (3 Credits) -
This class is about how to help emotionally troubled people and designed to present what emotional illness is and how it may be
treated successfully through "logo therapy", with Christian fellowship and prayer. The art of Biblical Christian
counseling, by trained pastors, chaplains and lay persons in ministry is where many of our students find the Lord using them
to help others in this ministry. No prerequisites. All are welcome. Bring a friend.
Instructor: Prof. Michael j. Shoemaker, B.A., M.A., M.Div., M.Th.
The Art of Preaching (3 Credits) -
Have you ever felt God's call to preach His Word? This class is designed to teach you HOW TO PREPARE SERMONS AND HOW TO
PREACH THEM EFFECTIVELY. We will cover: method, composition, and delivery of sermons in this class. This
is an exciting class and even experienced preachers are helped by it. Don't miss this class if God has Called you to preach
and teach His holy Word. The Apostle Peter said, "In the last days, God says: I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophecy/preach" (Acts 2:17). If speaking in public frightens you, this class is guaranteed to
give you confidence as you speak for Jesus, our Savior.
Instructor: Prof. Gary K. Heald, B.Th., M.Div.
Book of Hebrews (3 Credits) -
This class is an in-depth study of this epistle which is anonymous; however, the weight of Biblical theological scholarship favors the
Pauline authorship. These Hebrew Christians were in constant danger of backsliding. The chief doctrinal purpose
of this epistle is to show that Jesus is the only "way". This class will enable you to grasp a much better understanding of
Jesus, in relationship to the Old Testament, as being "better" in every way. He is your Friend and is with you at all times.
Instructor: Prof. Douglas C. Stewart, BA., M.Div., D. Min.
Dogmatics III, Redemption (3 Credits) -
This is an in-depth Biblical study showng how we have been redeemed by God through faith in Jesus Christ. This class will
cover Jesus' Incarnation; Virgin Birth; Deity; Atonement; Resurrection; Communion of Natures; His Holy Office; and His active and
passive Obedience. This class will strengthen your faith and deepen you understanding of God's love for you and all people.
No prerequisites. All are welcome. Bring a friend.
Instructor: Prof. Franklin Clark, B.Th., M.B.S.
Christian Leadership & Ethics (3 Credits) -
This class will study the essential need for Christian leadership today that is integrated with Biblical spiritual vitality
Learn about integrity and how to confront temptations that war against being a good soldier for Jesus Christ, in all areas of your life.
Learn from your failures and be a leader with love, igniting others to serve the Lord. We will cover some issues
that are causing ethical conflicts in the Church today that need to be addressed from a pastoral leadership position. Many
churches are seeking to be politically correct today and are accepting non-biblical teachings that are in direct violation of the clear
teachings of the Bible. Bring a friend. You will be helped and blessed by this spiritually stimulating class
