William Lane Craig UK tour (coming soon…)

Biblical Training, Bill Mounce, and certificate courses

New Certificate, CEU Credits, Annual Report, and The Story of Jesus Speaks!

Dear Friends,

Lots of things are happening at BiblicalTraining. Here are the highlights.

NEW CERTIFICATE

Christians in the Marketplace is a 10 hour certificate taught by Dr. Gerry Breshears and Kent Humphreys and is offered by Western Seminary and BiblicalTraining. It addresses the issue of how do business leaders apply biblical principles to their leadership and interaction with others in the marketplace in such a way that Christ is glorified and men and women are born into the Kingdom of God.

CEU CREDITS AT BIBLICALTRAINING

BiblicalTraining has been certified by ACSI so that we can offer versions of the Certificates for Continuing Education Units. Check out our offerings.

THE STORY OF JESUS SPEAKS

This is our translation of the Gospel of John specifically for seekers and new believers. A friend has just recorded the translation so you can listen to the Story as well as read it.

ANNUAL REPORT

You can download a copy of our Annual Report 2010. It will give you a snapshot of where we are, where we are going, and some financial numbers.

For His Glory,
Bill Mounce

P.S. Response to our last newsletter about helping the Chinese house church system was strong. Please pray for wisdom as we put a core curriculum together for them and all bi-vocational pastors around the world. Thanks to all who are helping with the transcriptions. And please, when school starts in a few weeks, remember to start your Amazon purchases at BiblicalTraining.org.

The Reasonable Faith Tour with William Lane Craig

Source: premier.org.uk/craig and H/T to Apologetics315.

In October 2011, William Lane Craig, arguably the world’s leading Christian academic apologist, will once again visit the UK for a series of lectures and debates.

Following his highly successful Reasonable Faith Tour in 2007, Bill will again present the case for the truth of the Christian faith, responding both to Stephen Hawking’s recent book The Grand Design as well as to Richard Dawkins’ The God Delusion, which will then have just seen its 5 year publication anniversary.

Richard Dawkins has thus far declined a debate, but the door is open to him defending his book The God Delusion on 25th October 2011 at the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford.
