We endeavor to help our church build upon our four pillars (Maturity in Christ, Meaningful Relationships, Ministry Development, Mission) by deepening our love for God and for His Word and by equipping each disciple and servant leader to be more Christ-like in our families and in our communities. To take steps in pursuing this, we are excited to be partnering with AIM (Athens Institute of Ministry) and starting our own chapter, AIM Pacific.
We offer two different tracks to inspire you in your Bible Study and help you handle the Word of God more effectively.
Old Testament Interpretation introduces students to the methodologies and background information necessary to gain a deeper understanding of the messages and applications of the books of the Old Testament. The Old Testament can often be neglected in our personal Bible studies because we don’t understand the context and because we are further removed from the events and culture of that time. Some may think that it does not apply to us today, only the New Testament is pertinent. Yet, it is two-thirds of the Bible! Though it is not “law” for us today, it is still God’s Word. There is a reason God left the books of the OT for us. Students will learn how to properly interpret the various genres of the Old Testament, including narrative, poetry, law, apocalyptic, proverbs, songs, and prophecy. Students will also learn about the usage of Old Testament texts, concepts, and ideas in the New Testament and how Jesus is present throughout the OT.
