Tabor College was an Australian Christian tertiary college offering a range of liberal arts courses from certificate to post-graduate studies in the areas of counseling, education, ministry, performing arts, mission, youth studies and humanities. The original college known as The House of Tabor was based in Adelaide, South Australia. The successor organisations are: * Tabor Adelaide〔(Tabor Adelaide )〕 *Australian College of Christian Studies (ACCS), formerly known as Tabor College NSW Sydney, operating in New South Wales and Queensland〔(Australian College of Christian Studies )〕 *Tabor College Perth〔(Tabor College Perth )〕 *Tabor Tasmania〔(Tabor Tasmania )〕 *Eastern College Australia, formerly known as Tabor Victoria〔(Tabor Victoria )〕 ==History== Tabor had its origins in the then Christian Revival Crusade (now CRC Churches International), a Pentecostal denomination. It has retained its charismatic ethos and established itself as a liberal arts institution with many students and faculty coming from mainline churches. These include the Anglican, Baptist, Churches of Christ, Uniting Church in Australia churches, as well as many Pentecostal groups. Tabor seeks to ensure all its programs are: Scripture-based, Christ-centred, academically sound, ministry-oriented, positively expressed and spiritually empowered.〔 Tabor's founding principal was Pastor Barry Chant, now retired from pastor of the International Congregation at Wesley Mission in Sydney. Chant is the author of several books including a history of Pentecostalism in Australia called ''Heart of Fire'' (1984, Adelaide: Tabor). Chant started the college in Adelaide with co-founder Dennis Slape. The name and logo of the college refers to Mount Tabor, Israel which, according to Christian tradition, was the site of the Transfiguration of Christ described in the gospels. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tabor College Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
