STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
This course did exactly what it offered to do. It took the bits and pieces of my knowledge about the Christian faith and helped to put them in order and solidify them. I found this immensely helpful. It was challenging, fun, and I feel like it was worth every penny.
Krista teaches in a way that is easy to understand but without watering down the message. I have come to realize, if we are going to deal with our cultural moment, all Christians should have a good grip on our Historical Doctrine. It is our best hope for unity.
This course helped me learn (and still am) to think differently. I tend to absorb information without asking enough questions. Other times if I disagree with what I am reading, I mentally disengage. I had not realized this habit until this class. This is great! Of course learning more about tenants of our faith has been the most helpful.
I appreciate and value the exposure to the diverse opinions
or positions on various
theological topics but still
within historic Christianity.
The Man, Sin, Salvation course helped me learn to think differently. I tend to absorb information without asking enough questions. Other times if I disagree with what I am reading, I mentally disengage. I had not realized this habit until this class. This is great!
I just finished taking Krista's "How to Really Interpret the Bible" class! I am in Japan and I had a friend in the States take it with me. We went through your "God's Big Story" class this summer. We have both gleaned so much for the classes that we both are super grateful for how the Lord has used you!
