Gaining a Greater Understanding of the Progress of Redemption
Mr. Disrud's eleventh grade students have been studying Systematic Theology all year. Systematic Theology is the study of an aspect of the Bible in a systematic or organized way that explains it to its fullest extent. Furthermore, a study of Systematic Theology helps the student to see how the truths of all scripture fit together. Mr. Disrud has taught Systematic Theology to PCA's juniors to demonstrate that throughout the entire Bible there is a meta-narrative where connections can be made from the New Testament to the Old Testament all surrounding the key figure Jesus Christ.
Last week the students created their own perception of the "Progress of Redemption" through a visually artistic format. Students summarized in visual form whether on poster-board, scroll, or journal, "the Bible's summary of creation to the fall to the redemption," according to Ethan Lowther. When asked what they had learned from this project, Ellery Baugh, Katelyn Howard, and Ansley Gresh all said that doing the project helped them to think through the truths of the Bible in a deeper way.
