Certificate: The Word

Do you wish to explore your Catholic Faith further? Perhaps you want to build on your basic catechism knowledge or understand a little better the words “recited” at Mass? Perhaps you are looking to rekindle or redirect you love of scripture?

This certificate offers an initiation to theology through a focus on the person on Jesus. Through reference to the scriptures this certificate places the coming of Jesus in is historical context and gives meaning to the quote from scripture: “the Word made flesh”. Its summit could be said to be in the Gospel of John, which shows why Christians believe the coming of Jesus is “Good News”.

This is an excellent choice for anyone interested in engaging in a systematic study of the Faith without the full time demands of the BA course.
