Enroll Today PCS 509 – The Secret Revelation of John begins Thursday, September 7 at 7PM EDT

Greetings fellow explorers and thinkers!

Now that summer is really drawing to a close, this is the time to get organized for the next deep-dive course into the world of the lesser-known ancient Christian texts. The Secret Revelation of John runs from September 7 through November 16.

We start this THURSDAY! And you won’t want to miss the opening session. If you missed the preview I sent earlier in the summer, you can still check it out here: https://pcseminary.teachable.com/p/pcs-509-the-secret-revelation-of-john (right under the course title).

This ancient text has layers and layers of spiritual insight and practical relevance. It’s a healing message that spoke to the early followers of Jesus who needed comfort and guidance. This is the earliest known text that covers the Christian story of creation, explains the source and action of evil, and concludes with a deep reckoning with salvation.

When you keep in mind this remarkable text was composed around the same time as the later books of the New Testament, you see why this expands our understanding of the earliest years following Jesus.

It would be great fun to have you join us for more thought-provoking discussions!

Zoom meetings provide an opportunity to discuss the material with others and are optional. Participate at your level of availability and comfort. This course is available as an independent study.

PCS 605 – Intro to Pastoral Care, Part 2

Dear Friends of PCS,

We are delighted to announce that Lily Godsoe from Pacific Institute for Essential Conversations (PIEC) will facilitate PCS 605-Introduction to Pastoral Care Part 2. This course builds on PCS 604- Introduction to Pastoral Care Part 1. If you have not taken Intro to Pastoral Care Part 1, no worries. You can always go back and take it as an independent study.

PCS 605 will begin next Thursday, September 14, 2023 and will meet in Zoom every other week for 12 weeks ending on December 7, 2023. The Zoom meetings are not a requirement. They offer you time with the instructor to go deeper into the material and the Zoom meetings are recorded. So you can view them at your convenience.

This 12-week course builds upon the basic elements of pastoral care in PCS 604. In this course, you will go deeper in your exploration of the foundations of pastoral care-giving.  This course will also provide a framework by which you can begin to further develop your own pastoral care-giving ministry.  There will be a greater emphasis on applied pastoral care skills and possibilities for a supervised practicum.
