Systematic Theology

The essential doctrines of the Christian faith

In this course we overview the essential doctrines of the Christian faith.

Watch the video first as you approach each section. Then read the relevant chapters of the course book, taking notes.

You are encouraged to read the Bible references. Ask yourself:

  • What is the context of this verse?
  • Does it help to establish the point being made?
  • Could it be understood differently?

If you use a printed Bible you may find it helpful to underline or highlight verses that stand out to you.

Some sections include some additional video content on more complex issues, these are optional.
