Life of Christ 2
(NT 202)
Pastor David Sell
Wednesday, 7–9pm PST
ONLINE ONLY
David Sell lectures on the Life of Christ. This second half of the course covers the life of Christ from the later Judean ministry through His Ascension. The course will provide a detailed study of the latter part of the life of Christ through the reading of the second half of the four Gospels. The student will gain a basic knowledge of the major events in Jesus’ earthly ministry. Special emphasis is given to the final days leading up to and including the crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension.
Christology
(TH 202 & BT 503A)
Dr. Dan Griffiths
Tuesdays, 7–8pm PST
IN PERSON (Campbell) or ONLINE
Christ and His work on the cross are a central theme to the entire Scripture. Atonement, justification, and salvation will be explored in-depth in regard to the Christian life and belief system. The claims of Christ to be the only way and his provision for sinful humanity to enter the Kingdom will be a central theme. The historicity of the Christ account of his death and resurrection will be given a strong apologetic. Salvation by faith and grace in the Pauline writings and the tension with James of a faith that is shown by works will be explored.

(CL 305)
Dr. Wayne Mancari
Thursdays, 7–9pm PST
IN-PERSON (San Jose)

Dr. Wayne Mancari lectures on the ministry of prayer. The purpose of this course is to provide an introduction to the theology and practice of prayer. This course will introduce the vital contribution of prayer in developing the whole person mentally, physically and spiritually and help students in their understanding and practice of prayer. This will happen through the exploration of the experience of prayer in both Old and New Testaments, as well as history of the Church, with special emphasis on the prayer life of Jesus and the early church. It will also examine the place of prayer in both the life of the individual and the church community. The course is designed to impact the personal prayer life of the students. Expect a miracle!

The Christian faith is by virtue a faith that heals broken hearts and broken souls and bodies. The world notices when the power of God to heal becomes evident.

Distance Learning versus LIVE Courses
NCBC offers two modes of courses
Distance Learning (Pre-recorded)– These classes never meet in person, and you are not expected to be available at any specific time or day for classroom instruction from your professor. These courses are taught asynchronously with no pre-assigned meeting times and pre-recorded lectures. Students will have access to class materials online using Populi as well as being able to contact their instructor at any point during the course. See all the courses available.
On-site Learning (Live Lectures) – These classes have in-person attendance (or Zoom), but you are expected to be available for instruction synchronously at the times for which the class is scheduled on-site or on Zoom. You will need to participate online using Zoom and Populi for assignments and discussions.
Distance Course Enrollment is ongoing. See the Distance Learning page for more info.
