Course Work - Our students are enrolled in on-line courses through Patten University. The courses center around Biblical studies, but also include core courses. We are also open to students from other universities doing discipleship and interships here while doing course work assigned by their university.
On-Site Bible Study - Our students tour the land of Israel and are taught the events of the Bible in the actual places where those events occured. This helps the students grow to understand the land and culture of the Bible and how they influenced one another.
Cultural Learning - Students learn about other cultures by simply being here and interacting with Jews, Arabs, Armenians, Russians and all of the other people in the land. JUDC will also take an active role in providing cultural and historical education to their students regarding the peoples here in the land.
Our Program
JUDC students will have the opportunity to develop intellectually and academically through...
Internship – JUDC is committed to placing students into ministry situations that will allow them to develop their gifts. Whatever a student's God-given talents are, we want to help develop them. It doesn't matter if they are good at music, computers, sports, academics, or anything else. The needs are great here and those gifts can be used for God.
Devotions - JUDC students will grow in their relationship with God through devotional life...students will participate in organized times of prayer and bible study. They will also be encouraged in their own personal times of devotion.
Christian Community - JUDC students will be living in a Christian community...students will live here at JUDC with other students who are seeking to follow Jesus Christ. We will encourage one another and help bring one another closer to Him.
Service - Jesus said that the most important thing was to love God and love others. One of our focuses here is doing service – reaching out into the surrounding community with the love of Jesus. Our students will draw closer to God as they begin to focus less on self and more on God and the needs of others.
Ministries – We will do everything in our power to get our students out into the Jewish, Muslim, and Christian communities. By serving and building relationships in those communities, students will have the opportunity to show the love of Christ and be a light to this nation.
