Biblical Hermeneutics, or Bible Interpretation, may not sound the most fun or exciting subject to study but this is really a foundational course; foundational to everything we teach at EBC, and absolutely essential for anyone who plans to do any teaching or preaching, never mind personal study of Scripture.
Among comments made by previous students are:
- “I now understand the Bible so much better than I used to”
- “even in my own devotions I am getting more out of my Bible than before”
In this module we’ll give you the tools to correctly understand and apply the teaching of any part of God’s Word, and we promise you that it is not as dull as you might at first think! When Paul tells Timothy to be an unashamed workman, “rightly handling the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15), he is, by implication, highlighting the fact that there are incorrect ways of handling the Scriptures. This important course will keep you right.
Taught by Pastor Daniel Butt, Pastor of The People’s Mission in South Shields, this yearlong course is held on 30 Monday evenings (7.15 – 9.15), starting on 28th September. The course is held on zoom so wherever you are and whoever you are, you can join.
You can audit the course – simply taking part, enjoying the teaching and online fellowship, and benefitting from lots of notes and materials, or you can submit assessments – completing an assignment for marking and gaining EBC study credits.
For auditing, the cost for the whole year-long course is £450; for assessments it is £600. This amount can be paid in three termly instalments.
