Teacher: Mr. Christopher Greene

Evangelizing Cults and Religions

Have you ever wished you could be more prepared to share your faith when you learn that a neighbor, co-worker, or relative is a member of a cult or another religion?

You don’t need to be an expert in the beliefs of every cult or religion. In fact, you’re probably already far more familiar with the Bible than any of them are, and it’s God’s word that the Holy Spirit uses to convict people of their need for a genuine Savior. However, it is helpful to have a basic understanding of their beliefs and practices.

This one-quarter class is designed to help you to be more effective in reaching out to these people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. It will include extensive notes about Catholicism, Seventh-Day Adventism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormonism, Judaism, and Islam, as well as suggestions for addressing common errors and misconceptions these people often have.

Teacher: Pastor Alan Plumley

This is the method that is recognized by conservative Evangelicals and used by biblical scholars. The material for this class is from the book Basic Bible Interpretation by Roy B. Zuck.

We will go through an overview of each of the topics presented in the book and work through passages as a class to better understand the process of interpretation.
