Course Overview

"What is man that you are mindful of him?" This ancient question from Psalm 8 lies at the heart of biblical anthropology. Understanding who we are as human beings is essential for understanding our relationship with God and our purpose in the world.

This course explores what Scripture teaches about human nature, from our creation in God's image to our ultimate destiny. You'll examine the constitution of human beings, the effects of the fall, and God's plan for our restoration through Christ.

Whether you're grappling with questions of identity, seeking to understand biblical teaching on humanity, or preparing to counsel others, this course provides essential theological foundations for understanding what it means to be human.
