Description: Discipleship Academy CORE is an educational ministry of Christian Fellowship Church that is designed to introduce learners to the major topics of Christian thought and practice. The first year, FOUNDATION, includes the three courses Story, Method, and Belief.
This option will sign you up for all three of the courses offered in this year's evening session of Discipleship Academy CORE: FOUNDATION (Story, Method, and Belief), and is slightly less expensive than signing up for all three courses individually.
Registration Cost: $60/person, covers books, workbooks, and any other materials necessary for the three classes.
Method:
This course will meet at 6:00pm, beginning September 8, 202
In this course, we will both learn and practice skills for interpreting the biblical text. We’ll seek to understand each book as its author intended, and apply the text directly to our lives. Much of our time in class will be devoted to modeling and practicing biblical interpretation so each learner will be able to confidently engage the Bible.
Story:
This course will meet at 6:00pm, beginning December 1, 2024 (there is a several week break over Christmas)
The Bible is 69 books written by over 40 authors in three languages over the course of 1,500 years and on three continents! At the same time, it is from beginning (Genesis) to end (Revelation) one unfolding story/account/narrative. In this class we will use the theme of “kingdom” to discover the storyline of Scripture. You will better realize your place in God’s story when you know the story!
Belief:
This course will meet at 6:00pm, beginning March 2, 2025 (there is a several week break over Christmas)
What do Christians believe? Maybe you are new to the faith or have been a Christian a long time and you believe Jesus is the only way to eternal life, but you might be unsure of how belief in Him impacts your life now. Perhaps you don’t fully understand the truths about Christianity you’ve been taught but you desire to gain a deeper understanding about what it means to be a Christian. Where do you start?
The Bible tells us what is true about God. Our brothers and sisters throughout the history of the Church have organized these truths into doctrines that have been corporately affirmed by Christians for thousands of years. These doctrines and core beliefs that are based on Scripture are essential to build a firm foundation for our faith and they align us in truth to know and love God well.

Description: In this course, we will focus on Tolkien’s theological thought and arrange it systematically. Though Middle-earth will be ever present, this course is not about the spiritual themes in Tolkien’s fiction, but about Tolkien’s thought as such, and we will draw from his academic essays and lectures, poetry, personal correspondences, and more in order to understand the mind of one of the great Christian thinkers of the 20th Century.
This course begins with a lecture on how to read Tolkien’s fiction theologically and then covers the following topics in systematic theology: God, Creation, Humanity, Angels, Sin and Evil, Christ and Salvation, The Church, and Last Things. Along the way we will deal with major themes such as sub-creation, eucatastrophe, angelic governors, Anglo-Saxon Christology, and more. Join us as we go there and back again on journey into Tolkien’s theological world!
Sundays from June 2, 2024 to August 4, 2024 at 10:45 AM.
