Bible 9-10 Grades

Instructor: James Morse

Text: Bill Gothard, "Basic Life Principles" Seminar

Overview of Course:

The goals of this course are for the students to develop a closer walk with the Lord, a greater understanding of the Messianic vision, and a strong daily devotion. We will be learning how to pray, how to study the scriptures, and how to be an effective witness for the Lord.

This course will explore the Scripture’s teachings on several essential aspects of life. Beginning with the well known "Basic Life Principles" Seminar taught by Bill Gothard, students will learn and discuss biblical views on seven "non-optional" principles of life: Design, Authority, Responsibility, Suffering, Ownership, Freedom and Success. Students will read biographies of noteworthy believers from the modern era and deepen their spiritual disciplines of the Quiet Time and Scripture memory. Additionally students will keep a journal and lead the class in several presentations - all in an effort to make it clear that they too, can live successfully in God’s world. The course will also study the Biblical holidays as they occur in the calendar and highlight their messianic fulfillment.


Bible 11-12th Grade

Instructor: James Morse

Text: ACSI: Understanding the Times, the religious worldviews of our day and the search for truth.

Overview of Course:

The goals of this course are for the students to develop a closer walk with the Lord, a greater understanding of the Messianic vision, and a strong daily devotion. We will be learning how to pray, how to study the scriptures, and how to be an effective witness for the Lord.

This curriculum addresses one of the most critical spiritual struggles currently underway: the battle for the hearts and minds of young people. The proliferation of widely diverse worldviews in Western culture makes it a priority that young people develop the "Christian mind." They must be prepared to think biblically about all areas of life. They must be equipped "to give a reason for the hope that is in them". (1 Peter 3:15).

This course focuses on four fundamental world views of Western Civilization: Marxism/Leninism, Secular Humanism, Cosmic Humanism and Biblical Christianity. It takes seriously the task of preparing students for survival in a secular environment.
