Our culture is becoming more pluralistic every year, including some of our neighbors. This class covers the religious beliefs of non-Christians around us. Each week will be spent on another world religion, giving us some basic understanding and highlighting points of contact and points of contrast between our Christian faith and these other religions. Join us as we further equip ourselves to embrace our church’s vision initiative to Serve our Neighbors as Missionaries. This DVD-based class is taught by Dr. Monte Cox, Dean of the College of Bible and Ministry at Harding University and Preaching Minister for the Downtown Church of Christ in Searcy, Arkansas.
