A Biblical Theology of the Family
Course Description: Family is important; for the sake of not only individual marriages and the children they produce and develop, but also for the future of the church and society. In a time of crisis regarding marriage and family, we need to take a deep drink from the well of Scripture. This course will help you trace a biblical theology from Genesis through Revelation and learn how to rebuild the God ordained family structure. We will seek to grow in our understanding of God’s perspective on the covenant of marriage, and parenting.
