ieti 9 ' The Bible holds the central place at George Pepperdine College. It is taught as the revealed Word of God and the only source book of redemption and salvation. An intelligent understanding of it is considered necessary for adequate religious leadership and successful Christian living, even a general education is incomplete if it does not acquaint one with the Book that holds the highest place in our cultural heritage. Since right conduct is emphasized not as a system of rules but as an art of living, the department seeks not only to regulate external behavior but to undergird the whole life with sincere motives and an understanding of the Word of God.

SANDERS. B.S.. M.S., Professor ol Bible The department of religion seeks to aid each student in finding his proper relationship to the world, to society, and to God. It seeks to develop a general framework that will enable him to keep spiritual balance and proportion, a frame- work into which he may place knowledges gained in other fields of study. But above all, we emphasize a knowledge of God as revealed in Christ as the integrating factor of life. belicfi oh Page Nineteen
