I'm planning to teach one of the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary extension center courses in Hammond. The course is open to all interested adults, and undergraduate Seminary credit is available. It will be on Tuesday evenings from 6 PM to 8 PM at the Northshore Missions Office in Hammond/Pumpkin Center, LA. The course is scheduled to begin on August 10th and finish on October 5th. We will not meet on the Tuesday evening following Labor Day weekend. There is a $100.00 cost for the course and an additional $25.00 registration fee.
The course is a New Testament survey class focusing on the main contours of the Book of Acts and the Epistles of John and major highlights in Early Church history leading to the conversion of Constantine. Anyone interested in registering for the course can simply attend the first class on August 10th at 6 PM. Please be aware only two absences are allowed becasue of the compressed nature of the course.
The textbook for the class can be purchased online at Amazon.com. Here is the book information:
Walter A. Elwell and Robert W. Yarbrough, Encountering the New Testement: A Historical and Theological Survey, 2nd edition (Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2005). Of course, the Bible is your other textbook - it's the main one!
The format of the course will be straightfoward. We'll have lecture/discussion time for each session, and students will be graded on a mid-term and a final exam. The exams will be objective and developed from a study guide.
Please let me know if you have any questions and are interested in attending. Blessings...
