Structure of the Diploma of Bible and Youth Ministry
The Diploma course comprises both theoretical and practical units in the areas of Bible, Doctrine, Youth Ministry, Preaching and Apologetics. A key component of the course is a three-term supervised placement in a hands-on youth ministry situation. The course consists of nine core units and one elective unit.
The units are:
BS101 | Greek 1* |
| CM 143 | Youth Ministry in Churches |
BS111 | Old Testament 1 |
| CT 100 | Doctrine 1 |
BS121 | New Testament 1 |
| CT 120 | Church History 1 |
BS130 | Biblical Exegesis & Exposition |
| CT 130 | Mission Foundations |
BS141 | Biblical Theology |
| CM 153 | Youth Apologetics & Issues* |
CM141 | Youth Ministry Foundations |
|
* Elective units of which one must be taken.
A commitment to prescribed Bible reading must also be undertaken.
Students desiring to enter second year (either in the following year or after a break of a number of years) must complete a bridging course of set reading and written assignments in Philosophy 1. They must also prove competence in Greek. Such students are not able to take out the Diploma as they are now entering the full College course.
