Why this is listed

Courses page confirmed live on 2026-10-24 and headed as free online learning about theology and life, with categories for Christian Foundations, Church History, Old and New Testament. The Gospel Coalition is already listed as a library; this is its distinct course platform.

How to start

  1. Open thegospelcoalition.org (opens an external site) and read what The Gospel Coalition says about itself before you read anything else.
  2. Confirm the cost and level fit: free, introductory, over weeks.
  3. Note the tradition — Reformed. It will shape what you are taught, and that is worth knowing going in.
  4. Put the first session in your calendar now. The gap between reading about study and doing it is a calendar entry.
