Directed Reading in Biblical Studies
This Directed Reading in Biblical Studies (DRBS) course is a directed program designed to expose you to a breadth of historical Biblical interpretation, Church History and Biblical Worldview philosophy. During the course, the trainee will read a large volume of reference literature from a pre-selected list determined by the course advisor. Application of the material provides the trainee with resources for preaching, teaching or personal bible study.
The course involves reading 100 pages per day, 6 days a week for 12 weeks. Reading material will be decided by the course supervisor as well as a number of elective texts chosen by you in line with your own areas of interest. Trainees will work approximately 6 -8 hours per day. Click here for detailed DRBS course information.
