Developing a Biblical Theology Course at Rock Springs Christian Academy in Milner, Georgia

High school students at Rock Springs Christian Academy were taught aChristocentric biblical theology, with the aims of increasing biblical literacy and best hermeneutical practices. Chapter 1 presents the purpose, goals, context, rationale, definitions, research methodology, and limitations of the project. Chapter 2 discusses the biblical warrant for interpreting Scripture Christo-centrically from Luke 24. Chapter 3 discusses the Christ centered interpretive perspective passed on to the disciples by Jesus through a brief survey of key selections in the book of Acts before turning to critique of contemporary practices of biblical theology. To close, the chapter offers a suggestion of how to merge several practices for a more robust Christ-centered hermeneutic. Chapter 4 outlines the developed curriculum used in the project. Chapter 5 provides an evaluation of the project. This project argues that best hermeneutical practice employs a Christ- centered biblical theology.
