Course Description:

A.W. Tozer said, “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us... No nation has ever risen above its idea of God.” Who is God? Is God a being that takes on contradictory forms? How can God be triune? What is God like? Is God male? What comes into your mind when you try to think of God as Father? How can God be all-powerful and all-loving given all the evil in the world? In this course students will be guided to examine their relationship with Father God by looking at their own lives to see what their behavior reveals about their unspoken, embedded beliefs about God. The course sets students up to experience unprecedented breakthroughs and deep comfort and relief because it challenges them profoundly to repent from thinking untruthful things about God. This is the most foundational course in Right On Mission Seminary. All students in every program are required to take it.

Key Questions To Be Explored:

• Who is God?
• Why is our view of God the most important thing about us?
• What kind of relationship do I honestly have with God?
• What does my behavior reveal about my underlying beliefs?
• What corrections do I need to make to my theology?
