About This Course

Your beliefs are far more complicated than you might think. Since your childhood, your beliefs have been shaped by those around you, the experiences you’ve had, and the culture of the communities you’ve been a part of. As you “locate yourself” on your personal map, you will begin to expand your understanding of your own beliefs, especially in relation to God’s call on your life. Join Susan Maros on a fascinating journey of self-discovery to learn how your race, gender, faith tradition, and other factors shape many of your beliefs about you.
