The Apostles' Creed

This course explains the history and use of the Apostles' Creed, as well as the details and significance of each of its articles of faith. It is based on the series produced by Third Millennium Ministries and hosted by Dr. Van Gayton with contributions from a variety of professors.

Making Biblical Decisions

This course is based on the lecture series, Making Biblical Decisions, produced by Third Millennium Ministries and presented by Dr. John M. Frame.
