| Description | The World Christian Foundations study program invades the mainstream curriculum, the legendary "liberal arts" curriculum, and invests it at every point with missions-oriented content and perspective, teaching everything people would normally learn in college and seminary (aside from vocational specialties) and doing so with a broad, 4,000-year global, mission perspective. Module 2 is the second 8 units (covering the Intertestamental and NewTestament era) of this 32-semester unit integrated degree study program. God is the Lord of history but we are locked in a cosmic struggle with the powers of darkness. Through their studies, students begin to understand God's plan for reestablishing His glory through "general" and "special??? revelation, partnering with humans in defeating the Evil One and restoring Creation through Jesus Christ. This unique curriculum can be studied anywhere in the world with a qualified face-to-face mentor. William Carey International University [www.wciu.edu] offers the program at the graduate level. Northwestern College [BAP@nwc.edu] also offers the course at the undergraduate level as a degree completion completion through their Alternative Education department. |
