God loves you. That is the theme of this first set of courses. When students have completed Tier 1, they will have a basic understanding of Jesus’ life, God’s love for them, the attributes of God and God’s plan for salvation. When students are done with this introductory coursework, they will be able to describe what happened in Jesus’ life, identify verses that point to who God is and describe the Gospel to those around them. They will also understand who they are in God’s eyes: men and women worthy of God’s love.

It condenses the content of our course Who Are You? into a single lesson, allowing a student in jail, who normally would not have enough time to participate in the Crossroads program, to finish a full course. The course centers around the big questions in life from a biblical perspective: “Who am I?,” “Why am I here?,” and “Where am I going?”
