Foundations in Faith (Set)

Foundations in Faith offers families a simplified study of biblical doctrines to help teens learn the foundational truths that will guide them for the rest of their lives. This Bible elective course focuses on the teachings of Scripture. Your student will learn the primary doctrines; the basics on which all true Christian believe. Secondary doctrines (those that do not impact salvation) are not addressed in this course.

Foundations in Faith offers an overview of systematic theology using the Bible the ultimate authority with creeds, confessions, and catechisms as helpful tools.
