Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary has developed the Dimensions of the Faith series for any Christian who desires foundational knowledge in the areas of Old and New Testament, Biblical Interpretation, Church History, Theology, and Missions and Evangelism. The goal of each course is to: - Paint the big picture of what you are learning
- Provide you with basic content
- Introduce you to keywords that will enlarge your capacity for understanding
- Guide you to understanding how greater knowledge of God’s Word can be applied naturally to everyday life and service
- Direct you to valuable resources as God’s Word whets your appetite for further study
If you complete all ten courses, the Ockenga Institute and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary would be privileged to award you a Dimensions of the Faith Certificate. Each course has a short exam that you must pass (21 out of 30) in order to qualify for the Certificate. The exams are meant to aid in the learning process. All exam questions have been taken from the lectures and most of the questions are directly related to material in the study guide. Sample Dimensions You can get a taste of the Dimensions experience by downloading a study guide and listening to a lecture before you create your user account. If you like what you see and hear, then create an account (for free) and you'll have access to all 10 Dimensions courses complete with study guides for each lecture and a short exam at the end of each course to help keep you accountable in your studies.
