At Bethlehem College, we aim to produce mature men and women who are ready to witness for Christ—in any vocation—with wisdom and wonder for the rest of their lives. We desire to graduate students who are rooted in Christ and ready for the world. We believe that education is discipleship, and there are some things that you can only learn face-to-face, life-on-life. Our programs are designed to give students key habits of heart and mind that will serve them in every area of life.
This summer, we’re excited to offer our Foundations of Christian Worldview course to qualified high school students. It’s an opportunity to taste and see what we mean by Education in Serious Joy. In this intensive course, students will:
- Explore why we teach Great Books in light of the Greatest Book for the sake of the Great Commission.
- Be introduced to Bethlehem’s rigorous approach to reading God’s word and God’s world.
- Experience the value of our intentionally small, face-to-face model of education.
- Connect with Bethlehem students and faculty both in and out of the classroom.
Students will begin reading assignments in June, attend 1 online orientation session, and conclude with an in-person intensive in August. The intensive will begin Sunday, August 10 with a Welcome Dinner and conclude Thursday, August 14 at 12pm. Request more information or register below.
