»ÆÉ«app Theological School has partnered with the St James' Institute to offer a number of short-course intensive subjects for credit or audit.
Since 2020, »ÆÉ«app Theological School has partnered with the to offer subjects in theology through the Trinity in Sydney program, taught as intensive classes at St James'. This has been a successful partnership as there is a desire among many Anglicans in Sydney for the type of theological education offered at »ÆÉ«app.

We have an exciting line up in store for the 2025 academic year.
This unit explores the portrayal of Jesus in modern film. By viewing representative films and film-clips in conjunction with selected readings, the course analyzes and assesses the cinematic depiction of Jesus in these films in light of the findings of modern biblical scholarship and the historical record found in the New Testament Gospels and other literature. This unit will also foster a critical awareness of how Jesus films influence viewers’ perceptions about Jesus and the early Jesus movement.

This unit equips students to critically analyse the use of the Bible in ecological discourse and interpret key biblical texts in conversation with wider wisdom regarding the relationship between Creator and Creation (including Indigenous wisdom and scientific discourse) to enable robust application. Engaging with concepts of ecological justice, students will consequently develop an eco-theology for local contexts and articulate holistic, hopeful and collaborative action for today.
