The division of Bible and Christian Education is one of the five main divisions of the curriculum at Bethel College. Six members of the faculty serve as the teachers of the courses offered in this division. Thirty-five different courses are listed in our catalogue. These courses are distributed in several fields. The larger number are liible courses, covering the study of the Old and New Testament. There are courses offered in church history, including two courses that are specially devoted to the study of Mennonite history. Then also Christian liducation is given a place. These courses aim to emphasize the importance of the teaching work of the church and give the students acquaintance with ap- proved methods. The history of missions, which follows the spread and expansion of Christianity, is also represented in the work offered. Several courses in theology and philosophy are included in the list, The general aims of the division are four in number. The first and primary aim is to give the students an acquaintance with and an understanding of the liible as the Word of God. God has re- vealed himself and his purposes for man in the pages of Scripture. An appreciation of that fact is primary. Then also it is an aim of the 'division to inspire young people to prepare themselves for Christian service. ln order that their training may be more help- ful provision has been made for practical experience in Christian service. There are a ,number of ministerial students who fill preach- ing appointments regularly. It is also the aim of all who share in the xvorlc of this division to maintain high standards of scholarship. The best training is needed for times such as these. -REV. A. li. KREIDER. 'lil Top, Ralph C. Kauffman, Ph. D.g Abraham XVarkentin, Ph. IJ. Page Fourteen
