In this course students will cover the following topics
- The Bibles Origins
- Attributes of God

Our hope is that by the end of the semester, your child will be able to think critically about these topics and explain these them using Scripture to support these beliefs.
Basic Christian Beliefs 2
In this course students will cover the following topics
- Spirits
- Holy Spirit
- Eternal Destiny
- Salvation

My hope is that by the end of the semester, your child will be able to explain these topics of the Christian Beliefs using Scripture to support these beliefs and ultimately that this knowledge will draw them closer to God.

World Religions & Cults
In this class we dive into other systems of beliefs. The objective of this class is to create confidence in conversations about religion, to equip believers with objective knowledge about other religions. Help all of us have empathic and honest conversations about why we believe what we believe and to intellectually inoculate students from beliefs that are a danger to them mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
SPECIAL NOTE: This course not always available because students must take Basic Christian Beliefs 1 and 2 and Apologetics before taking this class.
Exploring the Old Testament
This course will go through all the books of the Old Testament. It is designed to expose students to all the major historical events in each book. This will give students the understanding of how everything in the Old Testament was point to the New Testament and also how the philosophy and values in the Old Testament laid down the foundation for Western Civilization.
