- Class format will be like a Bible College class with lessons and homework each week. Class will be presented in ASL. Lots of discussion will happen. Topics will include "The Bible - The Word of God", "Jesus Christ, the Son of God", "The Holy Spirit", "Sin", "Prayer", "Repentance", "God's Plan of Salvation", "How to Witness Effectively", and much more!!
- Class attendance each week is important. Part of your class grade will be showing up, being there at 7:00 PM or before, and participating in the class discussions. Also you will need to do homework outside of the class (about 1-2 hours per week).
- The BTC will happen on Wednesdays from August 20th thru December 3rd, 2014. If you think you will miss a lot of Wed nights, please plan to take this Bible Training Class next year or at a later time.
- Doors will open at 6:15 PM – you can bring your dinner to eat before starting at 7:00 PM. Microwave and refrigerator there at the church. Also this will be a great time to chat with other classmates and check your homework before 7:00 PM.
- A BTC notebook will be given to you on the first night. When homework for the past week is done, then the new lesson will be given out. Each lesson builds on the past one.
- The curriculum for this Bible Training Class was written by a Deaf person from Illinois. There is no charge for this class, but donations will be taken to give to the Deaf person and to pay for the class materials.
- You must be age 18 or above to join. This is for adults, so please don’t bring your children.
- You must have internet and email access – teacher will maintain contact with students by email. Also some extra activities will be done on the internet.
- No college credit given for this class. But at the end of this class, you will have a greater knowledge of God’s Word, the power of the Holy Spirit, and learn how to witness better. Also if you want, you will be ready to take more advanced ministerial training!
