Applied Theology Syllabus

Course Description:

In this class we are going to be taking a more personal look into our walk with God. Each student will have a reading plan that is specific to the areas of study that they would like to explore on a spiritual basis(Basic Outline at at the back of syllabus). Areas are subject to teacher approval. Along with these individual plans, students will be given an opportunity to serve in two ways. The first is leading a small group with the younger grades once a week. The seconds is developing and planning service projects for their small groups and whole school.

Assessment:

This class is largely a PARTICIPATION based class! There will be daily homework, and projects, but a good portion of the grade will come from whether or not the student participates in class. There is a rubric that is attached to the back that can break down what is considered participation.
