Join us for our upcoming School of Theology class, "Biblical Interpretation"
Reading your Bible correctly matters. The technical term for this process is hermeneutics, and whether you realize it or not, when you read, you are wearing invisible interpretive lenses that impact how you view the Bible's communication and, consequently, your interpretation of that communication. In this class, you will develop an understanding of the Bible and its various genres and gain tools to interpret the Bible with care and accuracy.
South Valley Community Church invites you to our School of Theology, a series of courses designed to provide deeper biblical, theological, and everyday training to our congregation.
This is a great option for those who do not have the time or resources to pursue more schooling, but are interested in developing a deeper and more robust theology.
Every year we will conduct four to five courses (typically 4-5 sessions each), with each course focusing on a particular subject. There are three “Foundation” courses, and several electives that will be offered in a given year. There are no prerequisites for any course, they can be taken in any order, and there is no need to commit to anything more than one at a time.
That said, the School of Theology is designed to push you. There will be assigned work outside of class time and tests to evaluate your comprehension of course concepts, and for those willing to make the commitment, we are offering a School of Theology Certificate for successful completion of the three Foundation courses plus five electives of your choice (96 course hours).
