Feedback from previous students who took this course:

Going back through the Old Testament was truly a blessing.

– Bible 110 Student

I think there is a great balance of being able to focus on individual chapters of the Bible while also applying applications from each book as a whole.

– Bible 110 Student

This course is an excellent choice for any and all who desire to know God’s word more deeply. The survey classes are an excellent opportunity to get a quick, broad overview of large sections of Scripture.
