These are collegiate level classes designed to help Christian adults fulfill their calling by achieving Biblical competence and developing ministry confidence. All classes are one hour and fifteen minutes long. Both Tuesday and Thursday evening sessions will include a half hour intermission session featuring special topics and inspiration from guest ministers.
Classes will require a modest level of Bible reading and short writing assignments and may include occasional in-class quizzes. Expect to invest about an hour a day to complete course assignments. A one-year graduation certificate in Biblical Studies will be awarded to each student completing all sixteen classes offered during the first year.
There will be four eight-week terms, January-February, April-May, July-August, October-November. Classes will be held at Electric City Baptist Church, 2350 Hamburg Street, Schenectady, NY 12303.

2 Timothy 3:16-17 – All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Titus 2:7-8 – in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility, sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you.
