Taylor’s Foundational Core invites a community of learners to consider how a right relationship with God, others, self, and the world equips us to minister Christ’s redemptive love, grace, and truth to a world in need. This course will encompass the study and practice of writing that is developed to “expose” or put forth to others. We will discuss this in connection to your role and calling as a student and across your various areas of study.
