Foundations: The Basics of Theology

 

Foundations: The Basics of Theology is a course that is taught in the evenings in various locations covering a diverse selection of biblical, theological and practical topics. You can study in whichever location suits you best: Moira (Irish Baptist College), Ballymena (Baptist Church), Dublin (Jamestown Road Baptist Church) or online (Zoom).
