Theological Study for Beginners

What if you want to study but are not sure you can manage it? Maybe you are  worried about the level of study or the time it will take? Why not try out one of our ‘Taster Courses’.

A ‘Taster Course’ is a chance to join a 5 or 10 week once-a-week class, at beginner’s level. You might do a limited amount of reading between classes but you would not write essays or take other assessments.

In a normal year we run the following taster courses:

Introduction to the Bible (10 weeks)
A brief starter course on Old and New Testaments, usually in the Autumn.

Introduction to Spirituality (5 weeks)
A look at how to go deeper in your spiritual life, usually in the Spring.

Scripture, Prayer and Theology (3 Saturdays: Sept – Jan))
A beginner’s look at starting out in study – spaces may be limited on this course from year to year.

Our 2024-25 courses have already run, but check back on this page ahead of the 2025-26 study year.

For further details email enquiries@lindisfarnect.org or get in touch via the website contact form.

In 2024-25, 10 week courses cost £188 and 5 week courses cost £94. It is not usually recommended to take more than one per year if you are new to studying theology.
