The Four Gospels:
Why four Gospels? Why did God not just give us the life of Christ
through the work of one author? He divinely appointed four to tell the
story of the Incarnation. The differences among the accounts are not contradictions but
complementary pictures of Jesus. Each Gospel provides a piece of the
overall portrait. Taught by
The Rt.
Rev. Ray R. Sutton (Ph.D. Oxford).

Doctrine of
the Church and Eschatology:
Part One, taught by The
Rt. Rev. Royal U. Grote, is an examination of the biblical language,
imagery, and theology of the Church (i.e.,
Ecclesiology) laying the foundation for a consideration what has been
described as the great “notes” or marks of the Church: One, Holy,
Catholic, and Apostolic. Part Two, taught by The Rt. Rev Daniel R.
Morse, presents the concerns of General Eschatology, specifically the
victory of Christ. The final 2-1/2 hours, taught by The Very Rev. Curtis
I. Crenshaw, focus on the four competing views of dispensationalism..

Doctrine of God and Christ (replaces Christology):
The Holy Trinity is the most basic
teaching of Christianity in the history of the Church, along with the
Incarnation of God the Son. Do you really understand that God is one and
God is three? How would you explain and defend this to a Muslim?
Moreover, there is more to the person of Christ than you would think
(one person, two natures, no mixture of the natures yet the natures
cooperate in the one person for our redemption, and so on.) Go to
this
link and download or read the free introduction to this course.
Did the Son give up the use of His divine attributes while on
earth? Find out why that was impossible. In this day when the Jesus
Seminar, Da Vinci Code, and the media are attacking the orthodox
view of God and Christ, it is refreshing to study what the Church has
always taught in its creeds, what the Bible clearly says, and what
difference these foundations make. You will never regret taking this
course! You will worship God with renewed vigor, and your faith in
Christ will be strengthened! Taught by The Very Rev. Dr. Curtis I. Crenshaw, Th.D.

Doctrine of Scripture and Hermeneutics: How was our
Bible formed? How do we know what books should be in the Bible? What
is the ultimate authority, tradition, Church, or Holy Scripture, and
how do we know? Do you know how to interpret the Bible? Is there really
an objective method? You will learn how the early fathers understood
Holy Scripture, the various kinds of genre in Scripture, and be much
more confident in your understanding of what the final authority for
the Church really says! Taught by The Rev. Dr. Daniel K. Dunlap, Ph.D.,
Oxford.

Liturgics:
The Rt.
Rev. Ray R. Sutton (Ph.D. Oxford) teaches -this in-depth look at the
grammar, syntax, dialect, and accent of the liturgy. Beginning with the
premise that
in worship God meets with His people and his glory comes
to wherever they are, Bishop Sutton shows how the Church in its theology
and symbolism reminds the people of God of the glory into which they
have entered in the Divine Liturgy. As a result, liturgical worship is
the greatest privilege that a human being can have.

Patristics: Taught by
The Rt. Rev. John Fenwick from
England, Ph.D.,who has traveled widely, was in the office of
the Archbishop of Canterbury at one time, and did his Ph.D. in liturgy
in the early fathers. Bishop Fenwick's accent is a delight to hear, but his unfolding
of the early fathers is even better. It is very encouraging to know
that what we believe is what the early fathers taught. The Church has
not changed the essence of its belief in 2,000 years, for God's truth
of the Gospel is unchanging!

Spirituality:
Survey
of and introduction to various classical Christian works from the past
with a focus on the spiritual life and well-being of pastors and other
church leaders in the present. Special consideration will be given to
seeking a balance between the place of the intellect, experience, this
world, and the world to come with the goal to introduce students to an
approach to ministry as spiritual director and not simply as program
manager. The Rt. Rev. Ray R. Sutton (Ph.D. Oxford) does a marvelous job of
covering virtually every model of
spirituality in the history of the church, and then he gives an
Anglican model that is very biblical and practical. Your spiritual life
will never be the same. (View Dr Sutton's outline
Summary of Anglican
Spirituality.)
