Biblical Priorities – An Exploration Into What Jesus Said Matters Most is a 10-week online Christian discipleship course.  This is a 3-credit hour course, or can be taken as a certificate couse (no college enrollment required).  Students meet once per week on Thursdays for lecture/discussion via the Zoom platform.  The course lectures are recorded should the class time prove problematic, but in-person attendance via Zoom is encouraged.

The course focuses first on what it means to love God with our heart, soul, mind and strength.  It includes Scriptural contexts to understand why this commandment is of utmost importance. The second focus is the command to love our neighbor as ourselves.  It includes a deep Scriptural dive into defining one’s neighbor, examination of predispositions that hinder love, and the practical application of loving one’s neighbor.

This online Bible course is appropriate for believers of any Christian maturity level, challenging all of us to love more wholeheartedly. Students will gain a more profound understanding of what loving God and loving one’s neighbor meant when the Commandments were written and what they should mean to believers today.

Christian leadership is not an occupation – it is a calling. God is not looking for charismatic, strong, attractive people – He is looking for surrendered servants.  Popularity is not leadership. A title or corner office does not make a leader.  Spiritual leaders must be godly men and women called of God, equipped to serve, and committed to stewarding God’s Kingdom plans. 

Christian leaders are filled and directed by the Holy Spirit, steadfast in the face of opposition. and unrelenting in the midst of spiritual inertia. Spiritual leadership is moving people on to God’s agenda. How does a spiritual leader fulfill the call to move people on to God’s agenda?  This online Bible course will explore Jesus’ model of spiritual leadership and how to follow it.
