This seminar is run in conjunction with CHR 225, Bible School for the Nations, which studies God's story and His perspective of the world as revealed in the Word of God. The seminar pulls the principles from the Bible to discover the Biblical worldview and to help discern inaccurate views, which hold cultures in bondage. We also look at the impact of the Church and missions work through the Reformation. We have a major focus on identifying and applying biblical principles in every sphere of society.

The purpose of Teachers for the Nations is to train, equip, and send forth teachers with a Biblical world view and a correct understanding of the philosophy of education and history and to develop methods consistent with them. By God’s grace, we want to bless the nations of each student. We emphasize the value of strong Christian character; want to lead the present generation into an understanding of the nature and character of God, along with biblical principles of education and government. The goal of the program is to disciple nations through education. II Timothy 2:2
