About this course

This is the second of a four part course that surveys the entirety of the Bible. Join Dr. Sproul on a unique study tour as he explores the major themes, events, and people that are brought to life in the Bible. The teaching series "Dust to Glory" provides a panorama of biblical truth and a starting point to help you understand the content of the Bible. "Dust to Glory" can energize your study of the Bible, provide you with new insights, and improve your ability to read, understand, and apply Scripture to your life. “I believe that Dust to Glory is the most important teaching tool Ligonier has produced,” says Dr. Sproul. “It is our prayer that it will serve you in your desire to grow in the knowledge and love of God. As Christians, we are called to be people of the Word. My hope is that Dust to Glory will encourage, stimulate, and assist you to master the Scriptures so that the Scriptures may master you.”

The assignments in this course are structured to help you read and study the Bible.  Use your own Bible, or purchase a Reformation Study Bible from the Ligonier Store here.
