Today I started a new course with CCEF called Biblical Interpretation. It’s a course that helps apply scripture to the everyday hustle and bustle of life. As I go through my counseling training with my church, I pray that this course will enrich my life with the Word as I apply it and help mentor others. I met Dr Mike Emlet at the CCEF national conference last year and I’m looking forward to having him as an instructor for this course. My Mission Community consists of many former Pastors who took the time to pray for me and encourage me as I begin this journey with my studies. I am thankful for the ministry of CCEF and how it has been a huge blessing to my life.

Hello,
So how did the course workout for you? I’m considering signing up for it and would love to hear your insights.
I really enjoyed it! Dr. Emlet is one of my favorite teachers at CCEF. It has helped me in my Bible reading and how I approached it.
Thanks. What would you reccomendation be, I have the option of biblical interpretation or helping relationships. Problem is, I will have to wait till next spring to take biblical interpretation. In your view, would you take helping relationships or biblical interpretation first?
I took Helping Relationships years ago when Paul Tripp taught it. It depends if you are going for one of the certificates. I believe you have a certain amount of time to take all the classes that quality for a certificate. If that is the case, I would take the only the classes that pertain to a particular certificate and then move on to the next set of classes (this is what I have been doing). Both are great classes. Biblical Interpretation felt like more of a stand alone class that can be taken at any time. Helping relationships appears to go with the flow some of the earlier classes I took (like Dynamics of Biblical Change). Hope this helps!
Great thank you. Does biblical interpretation cover quite a bit on how to approach people? I’m excited about both courses. I’ve taken dynamics and human personality, but feel like I want to have an understanding of how to applyscripture, as well as understanding the person. Sorry for asking so much.
I don’t remember it covering much on approaching people. I think it is more for laying a foundation for you to help prepare you to meet people and how you perceive them. It will help you apply scripture to life situations. Hope this helps – Blessings
