The Creative Process in the Bible

Demo

Course Description

This course reviews the biblical account of the seven days of creation and presents the seven steps of the creative process as metaphysically interpreted by Unity's co-founder Charles Fillmore. You will learn the seven important steps in the creative process in the Bible, their orderly progression and how to use the process to create a more fulfilling life.

How the Course Is Presented

The instructor will prepare a Learning Guide for each week's work. The Learning Guide will include comments about the topic to be studied during the week plus suggestions about what to look for in the assigned readings.

Along with this posting, the instructor will initiate discussion threads by posting specific questions related to the week's topic of study. Students will be able to post responses to the discussion questions, respond to other students' postings and ask questions of interest to the class. The instructor will respond as appropriate.

Questions of special interest to individual students will be answered by e-mail.

Assignments

Online Course
Study the 10 lessons over an eight week period. Journal about the reflective questions offered in the text, take part in the discussion forum at the end of Lessons 2 through 10, and answer the self-check questions that follow each lesson.

Reflective questions help you apply what you're learning to your life.
Discussion Forums provide the primary means of interacting with your facilitator and peers in the virtual classroom setting.
Self-check questions demonstrate how well you understand the lesson. You have two chances to respond correctly before the answer automatically appears—but you do not need to achieve a specific score with your answers. Once you have completed the self-check questions, you may move on to the next lesson.

Grading

Students will be given a grade of S (Satisfactory), NC (No Credit), or IN (Incomplete). Grades are assigned according to performance.

Number of course credits: 10
