The "5 Tools of Personal Inductive Bible Reading and Study" provides a foundational understanding of the core truths of God's Word. Beginning with the end of God's Story (the New Jerusalem), the Bible is studied chronologically using 365 daily readings. Through the 365 chronological readings and watching over four hundred '5 minute video-lectures', the student will discover a 7 point outline that coincides with the promises and prophecies of God, and how these occur through 12 distinct time periods. Additionally, 10 essential elements of the New Testament message and 16 important doctrines will be studied.
This individualized study course can be started at any time by a student. Personal mentors are available to interact weekly with each student.
The "Biblical and Theological Studies" pastoral internship program is designed to prepare students for effective pastoral ministry within a local church. Integrating the Re-Forma 37 ministry outcomes with Shepherd's Global Classroom curriculum, the study program is flexible, allowing for the normal unanticipated ministry and life events which regularly occur in a pastor's schedule. The program usually requires a minimum of two years of study along with observed real-world ministry assignments and activities, and the courses can be taken on a year-round basis or during selected terms (fall, spring, summer).
The curriculum integrates common learning objectives from 10 premiere evangelical theological schools and seminaries which offer a "Biblical and Theological Studies" program.
