Is this another 'How to reach your neighbours with the gospel course?

Not quite. There are many good courses out there that can help Christians build bridges to speak to non-Christians about their faith. This course wants to go further. It wants to equip students to think through the deeper dimensions of what it means to become and be a Christian in the light of the whole message of the Bible.

What are some of these 'deeper issues'?

They entail things like 'predestination' and God's election; the definition, role and place of faith; who we are as humans – free to choose for God or doomed in our sinfulness. Then there are also further aspects such as the role of the Holy Spirit in our salvation etc.

What about the context in which we are to proclaim the gospel?

Students will be focusing on a context in which they are interested in – such as cross cultural communication, youth, pastoral etc.
