Bible

Semester 1: Wisdom for Leaders prepares VCHS students to be leaders on the campus, in their specific VCS programs and in their general life circumstances. This course uses the wisdom found in the book of Proverbs, in conjunction with leadership curriculum, to train students in the practical value of personal responsibility and capability for growth in all areas of life: from managing homework and relationships to wise financial stewardship. Students will leave this course with confidence that with the help of the Holy Spirit in their lives, they are empowered to affect positive change for themselves and for the world around them.

 Semester 2: This semester is purposed to inform students on the big picture questions about the Bible. Questions like, “What does it mean that the Bible is God’s word?”, “Does the Bible have any errors in it?”, “How do we know if the Bible is literal or metaphorical?” will help students to have a more circumspect understanding of the value of the Bible in today’s world.  After overviewing the types of literature found in the Bible and interpretation methods, students will apply this knowledge to various Old Testament scriptures.
