Character
Development Services Bachelor of Arts Degree |
| Western
culture is in the midst of a “character famine”; both
the “why” and the “what” of right living
have become obscure. As the results of “character-less”
living become prevalent in society, many are seeking answers.
The CDS bachelor of arts degree equips students to understand the
foundation and application of Biblical character—right living—and
to meet the need for character instruction in all facets of society.
|
It requires students to thoroughly examine the Biblical underpinnings
of character and apply Biblical solutions in current marriage, family,
financial, legal, and medical relationships.
Students
solidify this foundation with practical experience in the form of
an in-depth internship.
Students
may focus fourth-year character studies in corporate, education,
youth, or home-based services.
