Knowing Yourself

Course Description:

Where in the Bible does it say to know yourself? What happens when Christians (including those who have positional authority) lack self-knowledge? John Calvin famously wrote: "Nearly all the wisdom which we possess, that is to say, true and sound wisdom, consists of two parts: the knowledge of God and of ourselves. But, while joined by many bonds, which one precedes and brings forth the other is not easy to discern." In this course, students will be challenged and supported in their quest to become more discerning and self-aware, so they can become more Christ-like.

 

Guiding Questions:

  • What does self-awareness have to do with serving Christ effectively?

  • How can Christians gain self-knowledge without becoming self-focused or narcissistic?

  • How can we discern our own biases and blind spots and avoid falling prey to them?

  • How does knowing ourselves help us know God better?
