Biblical Overview Courses

Crossways International offers four courses—at increasing levels of depth and intensity—that trace the grand storyline that runs through the entire Bible. Some people prefer to start with the shorter courses to whet appetites for deeper study; some are ready for the big plunge into the two-year Crossways course. Either way, people will connect the “bits & pieces” of the Old and New Testaments together like never before!
