Course Description:
- This course is a survey of Church History beginning with the birth of the church (AD 29-30) and ending with the worldwide nature of Christianity in the 21st Century. The course will be developed in the following ways:
-
- A brief overview in lectures of 2,000 years of history reviewing significant dates, events, persons, and developments.
- Student-required reading of the Christian History Made Easy textbook and Pictures from Christian History study guide.
- Interactive class projects, group research and practical applications to help students learn, appreciate, and be better equipped to teach and include Christian history in their future ministries.
- Attention will be given to where the history, distinctive beliefs, and practices of the churches of Christ fit within Christian history overall.
- The instructor’s goal is to make this course more a “learning laboratory” than a set of long lectures. Only a minimum of work will be required outside of the class time; most projects and research will be done during class.
