Amazing work on the educational process both English and Spanish. I am not pastoring an AG church but I direct people to Berean and got my MDiv at Southeastern.

The idea of that book being the starting point is just kind of funny. Serious question about this process. I have taken many people through this book. And every time it is a challenge. We have to go super slow.

When you translated this, did you get clarifying input from Dr. Green about what he was saying? Or did you just thug it out and go it on your own?

Stephen has translated the Pope’s book too, so he has a wide and sprawling context of theological education and cross cultural experience to do it well. But where there were questions, he did provide an annotated manuscript to Chris 😊

I'm not sure it's possible to read anything He has written without questions. Lol

Global University also now has a Spanish Associates of Arts program that gets students the educational requirement for credentialing. Pretty much the same content as Berean but at the Community College level

I would only like to clarify that “community college level” is actually just college level 😇. That and EU’s certificate is cheaper because it’s not a degree, so one can’t have access to federal funding for it.

Oh yeah I agree, community college is college. I work for GU and the classic sales pitch for SMD uses that language. (I don’t hang on substack to promote for work 😂 just seemed like an opportunity that might work for Carls students since he mentioned Berean)

The Spanish program at EU looks sick though I’m glad there’s this avenue. Also looking forward to seeing the UG degree program in Spanish coming soon; kind of crazy it didn’t already exist

This is just for us gringos
