“This year has completely changed me. I had NO idea what I was getting myself into, and I’m leaving Boise a completely different person and so excited for what this school does… I totally believe in what SOBA does.-”

Course Content:
Teachings: Our course is designed to bring students into the story of God’s people and to train them in how to live out salvation through good works, as stated by the apostle Paul to Titus:
Titus 2:11-14: “11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, 13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.”
Teachings describe the story of God and His people, how we fit into that story, and how we can create new pages with our own lives as we live out the gospel.
