About your instructor

Ps Andrew Austin
Former Children's Pastor at Berwick Churches of Christ. Have you ever considered why God instituted family? What's Jesus opinion of the family? What role does the family have in society? God has designed the family and the role that the family and faith play in children's lives is critically important. My hope is that you find clarity into the important role family plays in society today.
Course reviews
This qualification has helped and equipped me in various ways.
Reminds me of a reality TV show!
Lots of things can work and go wrong in teams. Talking authentically and real about working with people is necessary and essential and needs to be addressed in a healthy way. Axx Bible College really pulled together strategically the necessity stuff to talk about that can often stop our walk, harm our focus and direction in our call with Jesus. Well done for calling out everyday issues and talking about them realistically so we as believers can move forward in doing our call for Christ, veritably.
Another very relevant, informative and helpful course
I found this course very informative, relevant and has given me more insight into different pathways within the church. With each step I take in study, I feel my connection with God growing stronger. I am putting my trust in God, to guide me to the pathway he wants me to take, and I am eager to learn more and more as I progress along my journey with God.
