FROM THE TEACHER

Have you ever wondered why people do the things they do – why they think the way they think? This introductory course offers a unique opportunity to compare Christian and humanistic perspectives of the field of psychology through a Biblical worldview. Taking this class as an EVP course will allow our class to practically talk through each fascinating unit in a more deliberate and fun way! I think you will enjoy learning and growing together in how we can understand people more! Join us!
