This course offers an analysis of four of the epistles that Paul wrote from prison (Colossians, Ephesians, Philemon, and Philippians). As Christians we face many challenges to our faith. False teachings and worldviews assault our loyalty to Christ. Suffering tempts us to think that God is not in control, or that He does have our best interests at heart. And our relationships with other believers are often strained to the point that we doubt the value of the church. But Paul responded to these types of difficulties in his letters from prison.
- Demonstrate a growing interest in the kingdom of God and in the epistles studied in this course.
- Understand key information about the life and ministry of Paul, the background of his epistles to the Colossians, the Ephesians, Philemon, and the Philippians, and understand the key emphasis of Paul’s theology.

This course was phenomenal and exceeded my expectations. The course material equipped and strengthened me to understand and further apply the central themes of each of Paul's letters, while also having a solid background for the circumstances and events of the times they were written. I really enjoyed this course and the pace that it provided, with the added flexibility to complete. The transcripts were also incredibly helpful in following along and utilizing during the course exams. All in all, this was a very helpful and insightful course!
