The primary objectives of the doctrine courses are as follows: to give the student a thorough grasp of all the major doctrines of the Word of God; to correlate the whole into one defensible system which will form a solid foundation for the under­ standing and intelligent use of the Bible; to promote warm Chris­ tian experience and spiritual maturity. The approach to all areas of doctrinal study is Biblical rather than philosophical. The method of study is sensibly dispensational and the viewpoint is clearly pre­ millenni a l. Special attention is given to the problems of liberalism and modern cults in their doctrinal aspects. The lecture method of study is followed and reference is made to the Biblical languages. Outs icle reading in standard theolog-ical works is required. 410. GROUP-CENTERED LEADERSHIP. (3) 412. TECHNIQUES OF COUNSELING. (2)
