Course Description

Aristotle said that humans are rational animals. This ability to reason does separate us from all animals and allows us to clearly think about God and reason about our faith.

In this course, students will learn the rules of good reason and clear thinking and apply those rules to 

  1. Bible Study
  2. Doctrines
  3. Popular claims about Christianity
  4. Popular claims Christians make

Students will also learn how to use logic to evaluate literature in general and use logic in every day conversations to bring clarity to the conversation. 

Logic is a subject that no one should go without and is not only critical for clear thinking about Christianity, but is also an instrumental tool for all academic success!
