EQUIPPING DIVISION COURSES
The Equipping Division is a series of practical, university-level, applied-ministry training courses that are designed to resource and equip the Christian worker for effective ministry.
WHAT IS CHRISTIANITY?
This eight-week course on the central beliefs of Christianity examines the basic teachings of the Bible in a logical and systematic way, revealing how God’s word addresses major questions of contemporary life. The course will demonstrate how both understanding and applying these tenets are essential to a deepening, personal relationship with Jesus and increased skill in sharing his life and work with others. Special emphasis will be placed on the incorporation of biblical teaching into various spheres of ministry—disciple-making, small groups, teaching and preaching, and beyond. Please purchase the book Introducing Christian Doctrine by Millard J. Erickson (the 2nd or 3rd edition) before the first class. Childcare is available at a minimal cost.
