Bible at the Core

A Bible minor is the core of every Cedarville academic program. Always among our students' favorites, Bible classes stretch you to think about God, His Word, and His world in whole new ways.

  • Christian Life and Thought will introduce you to the importance of a Christian world/lifeview. Doctrine and theology come alive when you apply them to key issues of our culture. You'll consider what is really valuable, what the nature of reality is, what it means to be truly human, what's wrong with individuals and society, and how we can fix what's wrong.
  • Spiritual Formation is a dynamic process that lasts a lifetime. This class equips you for the journey. You will be challenged to pursue a deep and growing relationship with Christ through the personal study of God's Word.
  • Old Testament Literature and New Testament Literature will make the Bible real as you explore chapters, stories, events, and literary forms as they fit together in God's redemptive story.
  • Christian Worldview Development explores significant biblical and theological perspectives on the ultimate issues of life: God's intended purpose for man, man's sin, God's redemptive effort to recover the race, and the ultimate realization of perfection. These key doctrines aren't studied in a vacuum. You'll confront issues facing contemporary Christianity and see the serious consequences of man's sin problem and the hope of a divine solution.
  • Worldview Integration is a capstone course that provides the opportunity to review and apply all that you've learned. You'll interact in small groups and discuss appropriate Christian responses to cultural dilemmas we face every day.

These classes will challenge your thinking. More importantly, they will transform your living.
