Your cart: Overview
Biola's Certificate in Christian Apologetics program has been redesigned from the ground up to allow our students to complete the degree entirely online, from the convenience of their own home (or wherever they have Internet access). You'll be able to stream the files directly from our website, or download the files to the device of your choosing and convenience.
The Certificate Program in Christian Apologetics is open to everyone regardless of educational background. There are no prerequisites for this course. We believe that every Christian should have access to training in apologetics regardless of age, careers, time restraints, denomination, or finances. The Certificate Program is an accessible way to begin studying the field of apologetics. We invite you to come learn about the relevancy and importance of the apologetics conversation today.
The Program of Study
The Distance Certificate Program is comprised of recordings from our Defending the Faith Lecture Series. Each course of the certificate program includes eight unique audio lectures by top apologists in their respective fields of specialty, as well as course notes and a certificate quiz. Each course of the Certificate Program comes in one convenient package (or "course"), and the student earns a Certificate of Study in Christian Apologetics upon successful completion of all three courses. For further learning, each course comes with recommended reading and writing assignments. As a distance program, there is no class time required and the program is completed at your own pace.
Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be awarded with a Certificate in Christian Apologetics from Biola University's Christian Apologetics Program!
