This course was developed by Dr. David Brooks (Ph.D in Old Testament from Dallas Theological Seminary) specifically for use by ABWE in training missionary personnel. The course is unique in that it takes the student through a survey of the Old Testament in a chronological narrative-focused style, rather than the typical book-by-book synopsis approach. Thus, it provides a Biblical foundation for chronological Bible teaching as a basis for evangelism and/or discipleship.
- The course workbook consists of more than 500 pages.
- All exams are offered online, through CEIM’s web-based Atrixware learning management system.
- The course can be taken for non-credit (no academic credit) through CEIM. Or it can also be taken for three graduate level academic credits through CEIM and the Baptist Bible Graduate School or Seminary of Clarks Summit, PA. For more information, see Graduate Credit Information. Also, be sure to read the additional information in the course design document.
