The Foundation degree is a new, two-year programme, designed to help you understand the Bible and how it applies in contemporary culture.
We want to help you understand the Bible in detail, with a sophisticated understanding of its theology, and the know-how to apply it to the everyday lives of Christian people.
We want you to be able to take it to sceptical and uninterested people as well, so that they hear it, understand it and respond.
We want you to be mature enough to see the whole story of the Bible, and understand how the different aspects of theology build on each other. That way, you'll be able to see ministry as an integrated whole.
We want you to encounter new situations in church or society and think through effective ways of communicating the gospel with them.
Above all, we want you to be taught by the God you love, knowing you have been saved by Jesus' death, and growing under the influence of the Holy Spirit.
Our starting point is our wonderful privilege of knowing God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The trinity harmonises the ideas of unity and diversity. That means the knowledge we have of God has enormous variety built into it, without flying apart.
The Foundation degree is consciously designed to start and end with a strong emphasis on unity. That is why there are integrating modules which bring all aspects of theology into a coherent and applied whole. In between are modules which embody diversity. These are different yet connected topics of study which illuminate in detail the many aspects of theology that must be covered to provide full understanding and a rounded church life. |
