Description The Biblical Studies course is designed to establish believers in the foundational truths of the Bible. Throughout this one year course, while not able to give students a complete knowledge of the Bible or Christian living, we desire to instill in them an appreciation for the Word of God and a desire for a relationship with God that becomes the basis for the rest of their life and service.
