Are you ready to take your Bible Study group or adult Sunday School class to a deeper level? This Advanced Lay Servant course might be just what you need!
Through daily discussion board questions and private journals, you’ll develop interpretation skills, practice in a comfortable group setting, and explore the use of current study resources. You’ll consider the context of the people who lived the events of the Bible, who recorded those stories and interpreted them over time, and the contexts of all of us who read it today!
If you have any questions, email the course instructor.
* PLEASE NOTE: Biblical Interpretation: A Roadmap, the required book for this course, is a 235-page college-level textbook. Don’t let it intimidate you! The instructor will make the content more understandable but does strongly recommend that you purchase and read the book in advance. If your current schedule doesn’t allow you to read the book in advance, please register for a future offering of the course.

Past Students Said…
“We are told by ministers and teachers all through our church lives to “read the bible.” … What we need to be told is to study the bible as it helps you understand more what the authors are saying and teaching.”
“I learned to pay attention…to things I never thought about when reading the scriptures.”
“I’m hopeful I might be a better teacher going forward with this understanding.”
“The course instructor did an amazing job responding, asking those deep questions and encouraging me to use available resources for a better understanding of the topic.”
