Course Description
Presbyterian Church History is a first year course designed to introduce students to the history of Presbyterianism from the magisterial Reformation through to the present day. Beginning with John Calvin and John Knox, students will be introduced to the figures, events, and significant historical developments that have defined that visible expression of Christ’s church known as the Presbyterian Church (in its various iterations). Special emphasis will be given to the Westminster Assembly of the 1640s, the New/Old Side and New/Old School controversies, and the founding and history of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and the Orthodox Presbyterian Church (OPC). Three days are spent in the classroom, and two days are spent on a walking tour of Columbia and Charleston, South Carolina.
Dates: June 6-10, 2022
