Biblical Studies

Develop the ability to lead and teach from a solid biblical foundation, equipped with skills for a lifelong journey in the Word.

Biblical Studies

The Bible claims to be the Word of God, breathed out onto the pages of a book. It is alive and powerful for the transformation of lives. Within it is everything that is needed for life and godliness.  The Bible invites us to engage it with simplicity and godly sincerity and promises to change us by its power. It is the communication from God that must form the foundation for a meaningful life.

Each Biblical Studies program provides a practical, engaged and immersive educational pursuit for students that enhances their ability to lead and teach from a solid biblical foundation. Its aim is to equip leaders with skills for a lifelong journey in the Word while igniting in them a hunger that anchors them in that pursuit.

Program Highlights


  1. Develop a biblical hermeneutic approach that engages the Scriptures as the authoritative power for life and practice.
  2. Apply exegetical skills to Scripture for a clear understanding of what the text says, what it means, and its implications for life.
  3. Articulate the contextual message of the whole of Scripture and the relation of each part to the whole.
  4. Communicate Scriptures formally or informally through preaching, teaching, discussion, or in writing, with a view to helping others hear, consider, and respond to its teachings and their implications.

This class was amazing! I've never taken a class -- in any format or at any level -- that impacted my ministry so immediately and so significantly.
