For information on the Love of Hard Questions Seminar, click here.

The Only Genesis Seminar covers the content of Volume 1 of First the Gospel, Then Politics..., and can be taught in a succinct 1-3 hour format; or in a full 15-hour format.  

1. It is also the same as the first of the eight TEI Classes:

9 The all-defining doctrines of creation, sin and redemption.

9 The four subjects of God, life, choice and sex.

9 The ten positive of Genesis 1-2:

Only Genesis has a positive view of God=s nature, communication, human nature, human freedom, hard questions, human sexuality, science and the scientific method, verifiable history, covenantal law, and unalienable rights and the First Amendment.

9 The six ethical components of the Bible: the power to give, the power to live in the light, the power of informed choice, the power to love hard questions, the power to love enemies, the power to forgive.

 

This seminar can also be expanded to cover Volume 2 and 3, and be simply entitled: First the Gospel, Then Politics...
