Understanding The Times
The curriculum identifies the current struggle among worldviews as Christians,
Muslims, Secular Humanists, Marxist-Leninist, Postmodernists and Cosmic
Humanists vie for the hearts and minds of individuals. Each of these worldviews
will be examined and compared in ten different disciplines – Theology,
Philosophy, Ethics, Biology, Psychology, Sociology, Law, Politics, Economics
and History. The understanding of these worldviews will enable the Christian
student to understand and therefore not be deceived by anti-Christian
worldviews. It will also allow for the training of Christian leaders who
can actively champion the truth of Christianity in a culture of relativism,
paganism, hedonism, and confusion.
Students will be introduced into the world of missions through From Jerusalem
To Irian Jaya – Tucker. The book offers a window of opportunity for students
to look into the life of missionaries serving in the mission field around
the world. We will be discussing the whys, hows, hardships and challenges
of being a missionary as well as God’s purpose as seen in the lives of
these believers. Students will be required to do a book review addressing
changes in their understanding, attitudes, observations and their Christian
Perspective.
