The Bible Minor Project
One of the value-added distinctives that sets Cedarville apart is that every student, regardless of major, receives a Bible minor. Made up of five courses, the Bible minor stretches students to think about God, His Word, and His world in whole new ways and encourages them to apply Scripture to all areas of their lives. We are excited to serve parents, churches, and the greater Body of Christ by providing these exceptional resources for personal and community study.
Theology I Taught by Dr. Jeremy Kimble
Theology I is the fourth course in Cedarville’s Bible Minor sequence. This course introduces the doctrines of the triune God, creation and humanity, revelation, and sin. You’ll discover how theology applies to your life and learn how to defend what you believe. These free resources are made available for personal enrichment, group Bible studies, and the benefit of the church.
The videos feature Dr. Jeremy Kimble, Associate Professor of Theology, as the course professor. Dr. Kimble is passionate about teaching students the truth of God’s Word.
