Adult Course
In today's society, we hear that we all have our own truths. We encounter people who struggle to synthesize the beliefs of those around them with what they know to be true but don't know why they are true. We may experience this ourselves. In a world deconstructing around us, we need the skill to discern what is true, what is not, and why. The Learn To Discern Full Semester Course empowers students to quickly and reliably find hidden assumptions that determine what is true and what is not—and WHY—in real-world issues and situations by exploring the assumptions that control how people think about today's moral, social, and cultural issues.
