Christians from a range of backgrounds will have the chance to better understand the Bible and theology through free certificate study at a Melbourne theological college.
Ridley College will make all its current and future certificate subjects free from the start of May. This includes an overview of the Bible.
Acting principal the Reverend Dr Andy Judd said the college decided to offer the opportunity after thousands took up its no cost online courses during the pandemic.

Dr Judd said that enthusiasm made Ridley think being able to provide the study course for free could benefit more people.
He said another goal was to expand its ability to serve more Christians from non-English speaking communities, through translating the study materials into more languages including Mandarin.
Dr Judd said the college wanted to make sure all brothers and sisters in the Church were able to be catered for given its growing numbers of multicultural members.
