The Good Life 

(Core Subject)

Purpose

'The Good Life' is our Year 10 Christian Studies subject, designed to develop students' skills in interpreting the Bible and understanding the story of God's redemptive work throughout history. Students explore the overarching narrative of Scripture, gaining a deeper appreciation of God's relationship with humanity and the central themes of the Christian faith.

Content and Structure

The Good Life is a journey through two separate units: Story and Theology.

Unit 1: Story

Students explore the overarching Biblical narrative, developing biblical literacy and a richer understanding of God's character. Through engagement with key events, themes and characters of Scripture, students examine how the biblical story reveals God's purposes and invites a response of faith, discipleship and love for God.

Unit 2: Theology

Students investigate the core theological foundations of the Christian faith, exploring doctrines such as the Trinity, the Church, sanctification and redemption, and Christian understandings of the end times. Through biblical, historical and contemporary perspectives, students develop their understanding of how theology shapes Christian identity and practice.
