    Overview
    This course focuses on living according to God's pattern for us. We study biblical commands and their wise application to various life situations. We examine historical and cultural changes that challenge biblical standards of right and wrong. We expose demonic strategies of temptation and learn about spiritual warfare. We seek ways to express the Christ-life within us by the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit.

    Outcomes:
    1. Learn how to love God and neighbor by following Christ in the Spirit’s power.
    2. Learn specifics of godly conduct taught in the Ten Commandments and other Scriptures.
    3. Apply biblical ethics to various contemporary situations.
    4. Understand some historical and philosophical trends that have shaped ethics.
    5. Grow in awareness of spiritual warfare and learn how Spirit-filled believers put on the armor of God and triumph over the devil, the world, and the flesh.

    Assignments
    1. View videos, listen to audios, and read articles for each unit. If you watch a video or listen to an audio, you are not required to read the transcript or slides for that item, but you can use them for further study.
    2. Memorize key Bible passages: Exodus 20:1-17 (Ten Commandments), Matthew 22:37-40 (Jesus' statement of the two greatest commands), Galatians 5:22-23 (fruit of the Spirit), and Ephesians 6:10-11 (armor of God). Treasuring these passages in your heart will guide you in God's will and strengthen you against Satan's schemes. In unit 12 you will report on how much you have memorized. Bible memory counts for 20 points toward your grade for this class.
    3. Use the discussion forum to ask questions and exchange ideas with others.
    4. Take the online quiz for each unit. You will have 75 minutes to answer 20 multiple-choice questions for each quiz. Once a quiz has started, you must finish it, and you can’t retake it. So be ready ahead of time. While taking the quiz, you may use your notes and refer to articles and other materials. 

    Important note: Once all course quizzes have been taken AND the final feedback quiz has been completed, you will receive a final grade for the course, which will be recorded on your transcript.

    Course Forum

    Each course forum is at the beginning of the course, right before the first course content section, and has comments and questions from other students in the class. The forum is a great way to post a question or comment for other students who are currently enrolled in the course to see. Additionally, you can search the forum to see if anyone in the past has addressed or discussed the issue, question, or comment you were wanting to post about.

    Accessibility

    Each video also has audio, transcript, and slide contents available.
