The Theology Program

Hans, I agree that B&H was challenging. There was so much information I think it would be beneficial to take it again which I plan to do once I complete the six courses. Sometimes I wish my mind was like an IPod and I could just download information and it would be there.

Kurt, I am taking H&S now but missed the first class. I will probably be joining you in Trinitarianism. The Idea behind this group is great! A place for TTP students to discuss what we are doing with what we learn. I have been thinking about this question a lot lately. Let’s say I finish TTP. Now what? What have other students gone on to do? I really love TTP and would like to think I could stay involved somehow. I am not sure what it will be yet. Maybe it will be offering TTP in my local area or Church?

A few things I have done are become a TTP affiliate, start a blog, and introduce our Pastor to TTP. The affiliate program is really cool because I get the chance to promote something I really believe in and make some money while doing it. You can check it out here

The blog is fun because it gives me a place to promote TTP as well as a place to voice my thoughts. Kind of like a diary. I plan on using it as a place of Christian helps as well as updating it with things I learn in TTP.

The Pastor seemed impressed with TTP so far. We are still kind of new at the Church so I did not want to seem pushy about the program. I just asked him to take a look at it and let me know what he thought. He said that by completing the program you should have a grasp of the major theological issues that concern the faith. Perhaps in the future the church will be open to TTP.

Michael, maybe you can help with this. What are some things that TTP students who have completed the program gone on to do?

What did you think of B&H. My work schedule did not allow me to participate, though I did listen to all the lessons driving to/from work on my ipod. I had a hard time following the train of thought in a few of the lessons but that probably had more to do with the fact that I am not an auditory learner (ask my wife), plus driving is probably not the best environment for focusing on new material. But I do think every Christian should do some type of B & H work as part of their discipleship.

Hey Hans, good to hear from you. I have to laugh at myself, I couldn't figure out where to reply to you. Then it dawned on me that I have to sign in:) Anyway, I hope this forum gets used...thanks for checking it out. Also, in your profile or somewhere, you can specify that you want to be notified of comments left here.

I've taken B and H so I have 4 more to go. I plan to take Trin in Jan '10 (I believe that's when it will be offered next.)

Until next time...

Hey Kurt, if I remember that I've joined this group (it sucks getting old sometimes) I will be back to take a look periodically. -- Hans
