Worldview and Biblical Decision Making (Day Course)
TS560 Worldview and Biblical Decision Making (2 credits)
Wednesdays: 9.00 am-11.15 am
Your worldview shapes how you live even if you don’t know what it is and how it works. This course seeks to explore the big questions of life and develop the necessary categories to develop a Biblical view of life to help you develop a truly Christian framework for moral decision making. You will be encouraged to, creatively and thoughtfully, apply what you learn to a number of case studies and scenarios as well as teach the information to others. You will also develop a ministry project that will be genuinely helpful to the context in which you serve.

Exposition of Second Corinthians (Evening Course)
NT538A / NT538 Exposition of Second Corinthians (2 credits / 3 credits)
Tuesdays, 7.00 pm-9.15 pm, 18 July to 18 November 2016
2 Corinthians is the Apostle Paul’s letter to a vibrant church in the ancient city of Corinth. The Christians there loved the Lord but struggled to live Christian lives in a culture that was fast-paced, materialistic, intellectual, multi-cultural, and multi-religious—similar to contemporary cities. Paul loved the Corinthians and wrote to help them grow in grace. As such, those teachings found in 2 Corinthians are relevant for us. In this class, we will hear Paul’s pastoral heart to a growing and vibrant church and will learn to apply those principles in our lives.
