“My God, My God—For What Reason Did You Forsake Me?”

A Devotional Reflection on Jesus’ Cry from the Cross by Dr. John D. Schwandt

The Theopolis Institute offers several courses and programs that can provide up to 9 credits (master’s level) of transfer credit at Redemption Seminary. This would be 25% of the MABS program, reducing the cost and time to earn an accredited master’s degree in biblical studies without additional traveling.

Redemption Master’s Programs are designed to work within professional and ministry lives and responsibilities. Courses use a workbook approach (rather than long papers) and are graded with personal conversations with a mentor (rather than exams). Everything is 100% online and has flexible scheduling, so students can even make substantive progress using their daily Bible study time. The program structure can make these times in the Word very productive.

At Redemption Seminary, we want our students to get the most out of their Logos digital library—a powerful tool for biblical research and study. While we provide training within our courses and offer periodic sessions led by Logos staff, we also recognize that mastering Logos takes time and dedicated learning.

That’s why we highly recommend LearnLogos.com

As 2024 comes to a close, we celebrate a year of incredible milestones and blessings at Redemption Seminary. This has truly been a transformative year in our journey of equipping students for impactful ministry.
