BMATS to Offer Free Online Course
The free fall course offered by BMATS, “How to Study the Bible,” taught by BMATS Professor Dr. Greg Parsons, is scheduled for Sept. 30–Nov. 22. This eight-week online course will emphasize inductive Bible study principles to study the Bible for oneself. Included is how to interpret the text according to the biblical and historical-cultural contexts. The main textbook, authored by former BMATS professor Dr. Joe Pendleton, The Joy of Bible Study, has been reprinted by the Baptist Publishing House and is offered as a free PDF.
In addition to participating for free, the student may take the course for credit with a tuition charge. The former option allows learning by doing as much or as little as one has time. The latter requires full participation in a normal course, such as quizzes, homework, and reading one or two additional textbooks.
If you would like to sign up, go to bmats.edu/free. If you have any questions, contact the seminary at (903) 586-2501, (800) 259-5673 or bmats@bmats.edu.
