Introduction to Biblical Studies

This course introduces middle-schoolers to the primary structure and themes of the Bible over the course of 2 years. This year, students will be introduced to the major themes and stories of the Old Testament. Students will briefly study each book in scripture, identify and locate key biblical figures and events, and learn the story of God's plan of redemption. 

“The Story of the Old Testament teaches students to study and recognize the big story of Creation, Fall, and Redemption in the Old Testament through individual narratives. Students will develop an understanding of the Old Testament’s application to the New Testament. Ultimately, students will learn to conduct their independent Bible study as they understand the principles of hermeneutics and biblical theology. The course materials work together to present the Bible as the true story of what God is doing to glorify Himself by redeeming His fallen creation.” BJU Press.
