Introduction to Theology
SELF-PACED Course
Instructor: Michael Patton
Course Description
Learn the skills needed for developing a Christian mind to help you construct a solid foundation for thinking through life's most important issues. Why be concerned with theology? What is truth? Is there such a thing? Can we be certain that our truth is the right truth? What is the Christian view of truth? How do we respond to a culture that devalues truth? Does God still communicate through direct encounters today?
For those who are tired of today’s church being so anti-intellectual and adrift at sea with no anchor, we ask you to get involved in reclaiming your mind for Christ. This study aims at turning the tides toward a new age of humble theological depth.
