At the start of the new year, Veritas Church will be offering a new opportunity for formal theological development. We will be launching a Theological Development Cohort in January of 2023! The goal of this cohort is to theologically train men and women to know and love God and all things in relation to him. This will be a 12 month long cohort led by Pastor Ryan Ross and our Director of Operations, Sam Metheny. Cohort members will work through one theological topic per month, have assigned reading materials related to the topic (one book per month), have assigned podcast listening, and tackle a case study together. Examples of topics will be bibliology (the study of the bible and how it came to be) and hermeneutics (biblical interpretation), Pneumatology (the study of the Holy Spirit), Soteriology (the study of salvation), and more. There is no expectation of leadership or service after the end of this cohort, and there is also no expectation of previous formal theological training. Anyone can join in on this cohort! Our leadership values knowing and loving the God that we worship, and we also think it is really important to equip our church with the resources to discern theological matters in a biblically faithful way. If you are interested in hearing more about this Theological Development Cohort, please click the button below to RSVP for the interest meeting on November 13th after the gathering. We will provide you with an overview of the curriculum, the list of reading materials, and maybe even a sample case study question to get the gears turning in your brain. We really hope that we will see you there!
