Course Design

Testimony

"I signed up with the thought that I would have to make the best of it--sort of like an independent study. My pre-course notions were that:
1. It would be impersonal, detached, and sterile.
2. It would be easy (hopefully).
3. It wouldn't take up much of my time.
4. I wouldn't get to know anybody, yet alone make friends.
5. I wouldn't learn much, except from reading.
6. It would be boring and clinical
None of the above happened. and it will take a long time for me to fully integrate what I have learned from this class....To my shock and awe, the course was personal, virulent, hard (at times), time-consuming, interesting, both clinical (psychologically speaking) and pastoral, and fun. Oh yeah, and I made a bunch of great life-long friends. I couldn't help but be drawn into the collegial spirit of our online community. It's funny, instead of being impersonal, it was more personal than most traditional classes or seminars I've taken."
_______________________
The purpose of the course is to help each of us build healthy relationships. One definition of sin is “anything that causes broken relationships with God and with others.” We will discuss why we need to learn all we can about building healthy relationships and how doing that will honor God.

We will talk about the fact that God made each of us different and that is good. We will learn some of the ways we are different and how to affirm those differences rather than view people who are different as weak, mean, inferior, or bad. During the course, you will develop healthy, warm friendships with your classmates and teacher. We will practice some of the relationship skills as we go. You will be comfortable in the class whether you are an introvert or extrovert. Join in. You will be glad you did!
