In Theology II Dr. Webster continues to expound the most important aspects of Christian belief and theology in an interesting and exciting fashion. This course covers the subjects of man, sin, and salvation. Man is created in the image of God and is made up of body, soul, and spirit. Through rebellion and sin man fell and broke his relationship with God profoundly affecting every area of his life and being. God’s answer is salvation through the cross of Jesus Christ. In the same way that sin negatively affected every area of man’s being and resulted in death, salvation restores all that was broken and leads to incredible life.

The Ministry of Helps is vital to the fundamental operation of the local church and lays a biblically-based foundation for a structured and organized helps ministry which can transform churches, win souls and change lives. In this course, Dr. Buddy Bell defines the Ministry of Helps and lays the scriptural foundation for this gift's purpose and application in strengthening the body of Christ. Dr. Bell gives examples of the Ministry of Helps during Jesus' ministry on earth and how the disciples functioned in this gifting at various times. An entire session is focused on the relationship between the pastor and the church from both points of view and on the description of each particular role in the relationship. Finally, our instructor addresses the fear of leadership, organization, and structure that some members of the body have developed over time. He gives scriptural examples of God's purpose in each of these social applications.

Practical Lab is designed to secure a strong foundation for true Christian leadership. True Christian leadership consists of three things: Living what we learn (practical ministry), a knowledge of scripture acquired by a disciplined bible reading/study habit and the ability to articulate your spiritual growth to others.

 This course addresses the practical application of the leadership/ministry principles and tools that are the foundation of the Nation-2-Nation curriculum by getting the student to seek out and participate in a variety of ministry opportunities.

The Practical Ministry lab is an opportunity to do the real work of ministry throughout each semester. You will be responsible for engaging in church sanctioned ministry activities and submitting electronic reports of your activity back to N2NCU. Talk to your pastor or leadership to find out how you can help.

The Bible Reading lab will take the student through the entire New Testament and one quarter of the Old Testament for every three semesters completed. Upon completion of the bachelor program you will have read the New Testament four times and the Old Testament once. Your bible reading discipline will be well established by following the weekly bible reading schedule.

The Testimony section gives you, the student, a chance to put into words the changes that are taking place in you, your ministry, and your relationships. Your testimony also encourages others to seek growth in their own spiritual lives and reminds all of what God can do when you follow hard after Him.
