            •  Psychology from a Biblical Perspective- (high school) Students will be introduced to the study of Psychology

               from a distinctly Christian perspective. The course focuses on individual behavior and why an individual thinks,
               feels, and reacts to certain stimuli. Major emphases will be placed on research methods, stages in childhood and
               adolescence, how the brain works, motivation, learning and memory, sensation and perception, stress and
               health, altered states of consciousness, psychological testing and disorders. The course will incorporate weekly
               activities and discussions to help students understand how psychology is observed and utilized in our everyday
               lives. Psychology is a great course to take if the student is college-bound. Nearly every higher level institution,
               whether it is a community college or university, requires every student to take an Introduction to Psychology
               course, regardless of their major.  Students will be prepped to take the CLEP Psychology test to receive (4)
               college credits. Required Textbook: Psychology - Visualizing Psychology(2nd edition), Carpenter & Huffman

            •  Apologetics (& Illuminated Bible Art)- (middle/high school and adults) description coming soon For the
               2016-2017 school year, students will take a 2-semester tour of the Old Testament Book of Genesis. We will
               begin by discussing the place of Genesis within the Pentateuch, and the place of the Pentateuch within the
               TeNaK. We will also explore a working textual outline of the book.

               Following this introduction, we will take a deep look at the Book of Genesis, working our way through the book
               passage by passage. Questions on the text, as well as those concerning issues of faith outside the text, will be
               welcomed and encouraged.


               This class will combine elements of a Bible Study, a survey course, and a theological/textual study, and will be
               suitable for students of all experience levels. Required Materials: pending Teacher: Dave Collins Recommended
