Scripture and Society with Dr. J.P. Kang

Dr. J.P. Kang joins Dan and Rachael this week to introduce The
Seattle School’s brand new Certificate in Scripture and
Society. 


From the beginning, J.P. makes it clear—this isn't just another
Bible study course. As he explains, “It's not the way that
they've approached scripture in a previous church setting or
perhaps faith-based educational institution. I think that what
I'm trying to do is help students become better readers, both of
the text and of their context, of themselves.”


This transformative, 12-month certificate program offers a fresh,
psychologically-informed approach to studying the Bible. Students
will explore scripture through diverse cultural, historical, and
literary perspectives while being guided by esteemed scholars and
seasoned practitioners. The program is designed to challenge and
expand how we read and interpret both the text and our world.


If you're a faith leader or someone passionate about engaging
scripture through liberative, intellectually rigorous lenses,
this program is for you. Live, online courses begin January 2025,
and applications are open now through December 1, 2024.
