New
Testament Survey
Description
This class offers a great introduction to the 27
books of the New Testament. Not only will you learn about the
specifics of each book, but you will also learn how they all
fit together as part of God’s story. The class will
explore some of the major themes and emphases in the NT, seeking to apply the
teachings found there to our lives.
Format
New Testament Survey is both similar to and different
from your other two NST courses. It is similar in that it
will involve listening to lectures, taking notes, reading
books and completing tests. As an “independent study” course,
however, it differs in its learning environment. In a classroom
environment, regularly scheduled lectures provide an external
incentive for learners to keep up their pace. With an independent
study course all the initiative lies with the learner. Some
learners find this format challenging—particularly
because of the personal discipline it requires. Nevertheless,
independent study is an important means of adult learning.
It is critical as staff that we learn how to engage in study
on our own. All the course materials are available below.
