Senior High (Non-Elective) Classes...
Bible
Basic Theology (9th)
Behold Your God. This study has one purpose--to encourage the students to know their God. This is accomplished by teaching them what the purposes and goals are of a believer and by assisting them to grow and mature as they learn about God by focusing on His Word and His works. To know God is to love God, and to love God is to want to serve Him. This practical study paves the way for genuine, loving Christian service with the right heart attitude.
Advanced Theology (10th)
Using the Bible and 30 Days to Understanding the Bible (2004) by Max Anders, sophomores will gain a better understanding of the narrative of the Bible by systematically studying the structure and organization of the Bible and the eleven eras of the Old and New Testaments in chronological order. Students will also study the Bible’s geography, culture, key covenants, all the major characters and events of the Bible, and the life of Christ and His Gospel. Finally, students are introduced to the core Christian doctrines of Bibliology, Theology, Christology, Pneumatology, Angelology, Anthropology, Hamartiology, Soteriology, Ecclesiology, and Eschatology from a historically baptistic perspective.
Bible Doctrines (11th)
Bible students can expect to gain a fundamental understanding of the basic Bible doctrines while being prepared for College.

Students can expect to write multiple papers throughout the course and formulate their own "Doctrine Statement" at the end of the course.
