C. Michael Patton and Rhome Dyke of The Theology Program teach the doctrine of God: how God can be known, how his existence is defended, what his attributes are, how the church came to confess one God in three persons, and who Jesus Christ is, fully God and fully man.
This is the third course of The Theology Program, a full curriculum in Christian theology taught at the classroom level for ordinary church members. C. Michael Patton and Rhome Dyke spend ten sessions on the doctrine of God from every side: the worldviews that compete for the modern mind, whether and how an infinite God can be known, the classic arguments for his existence, the incommunicable and communicable attributes, the sovereignty of God and the challenge of open theism, the historical road to the doctrine of the Trinity and its defense from Scripture, and finally the person of Christ: how the church confessed him one person in two natures, and what his true humanity means for our redemption.
Each lecture below is a full class session, and each has its own page with the video, a study sheet that walks the lecture section by section, links to every Scripture passage discussed, key terms, a comprehension check, discussion questions, and a printable PDF.
Lectures by C. Michael Patton, Th.M., and Rhome Dyke, Th.M., embedded from The Theology Program's public channel.
Enrollment is free and optional, and takes a minute: let the church know you are studying.
All 10 lectures are ready.
The course begins where every doctrine of God must: with the worldviews we bring to the question before a single verse is read. Each lecture builds on the last, so start at the beginning and work through in order.
