Finding and Developing My Purpose

 


 Course Syllabus

Christian Values I 

Finding and Developing My Purpose
1st Year / First Semester
  Contact Hours: (1 unit / 1 hour weekly)


I. Course Overview & Rationale

Life is more than accumulation of things. Through this course, students will explore the Christian understanding of purpose—why we exist, the meaning of spiritual rebirth, and how to live out the “new creation” identity in Christ. We will work through foundational biblical truths, spiritual practices, and reflective exercises to help each student articulate and begin living out their God-given purpose.
