Study Afresh

This course introduces students to a radically different approach to Bible study. This is a humble approach that intentionally seeks to submit to God’s Word and to be mastered by the Word. Much of our academic training has emphasized the desire of students to master the materials being studied. We even have an academic degree that suggests the student has succeeded in the task of mastery. we call that first graduate-level credential the “Master Degree.” However, Robert Mulholland, professor and author of Shaped by the Word suggests that we bring that same desire of mastery to God’s Word and miss the teaching that God desires for us. He is Lord. He is Master. And we must humble ourselves to hear His Words. Join me in this quest to discipline ourselves as we learn to Study Afresh!
