A rigorous curriculum compels students to explore and wrestle with deep questions, to learn to study and handle the scriptures with integrity, and to develop the skills necessary to lead, teach and guide others to maturity in Jesus Christ.
Students benefit from intellectual exploration of various disciplines as well as real-world application to ministry from skilled, experienced and highly qualified instructors.

This strengthens the learning experience! Students and faculty alike are challenged to listen, learn from one another, share their viewpoints, and participate in discussions all under the authority of Scripture.
