Biblical Studies, B.A.B.S.

The Bachelor of Arts in biblical studies seeks to establish the faith and understanding of students through study of the Bible as the inspired, infallible Word of God. It also seeks to provide the necessary background and skills to interpret the Bible adequately as the objectively authoritative rule of faith and practice. In accordance with the best standards of Reformed scholarship, the biblical data are presented along with a consideration of light that has been shed upon the subject matter by recent study or discovery. Thus, students are encouraged to investigate the biblical text for themselves as the source of their doctrine and the guide for their conduct. Students meet one night a week for four hours of classroom instruction and one night a week in their project teams.
