The Biblical Studies Session is designed to introduce the student to the rigors of Biblical study and the importance of having Biblical foundations. This Session includes courses on hermeneutics, surveys of the Old and New Testaments, and Apologetics. The student will also walk through the Redemptive story and consider key biblical themes in order to gain a deeper perspective of how the Gospel continues to work in the world today. It is upon this foundation that the student will then begin to understand the role of vocation and calling within the greater salvific story and how the kingdom of God is expanded through Christians embracing their call to life and work.
