| The goal of the Religion Department is
to provide an opportunity for students to gain a better
understanding of God through the study of the Scriptures.
GBA wants to encourage students to explore questions
about theology and a relationship with Christ through
personal study and corporate discussion. Primary emphasis
is placed upon study of the Bible. Additional readings
will include the writings of early church leaders, medieval
church reformers and pioneers. |
