Dr.Towns,w/o question,is the best in his field.He's passionate about what he does.he wouldn't be if he hadn't written all of those books.I had 2 courses with him in Seminary,and he is truly a Godly man.

Dr. Towns is amazing! An absolutely wonderful professor! So lucky to have him teaching here!!!

Prof. Towns is awesome! The best part of his class is listening to his stories of where he has traveled.

This man knows his Bible and teaches it with clarity and in a real world context. Amazing teacher and man.

Towns is a cool little guy. He tends to talk about sex a lot tho- but its funny- nothing inappropriate.

He's the sweetest professor. It's an easy class. Dr. Town's is very knowledgable on the subject. I definitely recommend him for BIble 110 and even for Theology.

great teacher, very easy class...planning to take again for THEO 202

Dr. Towns loves to tell stories in his lectures. He keeps me interested, but I find that I'd rather hear his stories than hear him teach. He also has an interesting accent that is fun to immitate. He seems to be caught up more in the facts rather than the spiritual,but good teacher! I recommend him!

Cute little old man. But I don't recomend him if you want to learn. If you don't care and want an easy A, then take him.

He was not their alot... but his helpers were cool... tells alot of stories but is really sweet

Towns is the man!!! He was very helpful!! He always talks about where he has been! He's really interesting!!

The man has more to say than anybody ever. He can tell stories for 8 hrs a day and then turn around and preach that evening. Author of over 120 books...that is amazing.

Dr. Towns is amazing

Dr. Towns is a great teacher. Fun class. I'm glad to have had him as a professor. He is easy to talk to and really seems interested the few times I talked to him.

Great professor!

Dr. Towns has great wisdom. It was a privilege to sit under his instruction

Open Book quizzes. Knows the bible real well. very interesting class

a very great teacher. if u take new testment u should really get him!

Hey Gang... look at letter 2 number A... my favorite pie is cake!

I took the DLP course and it seemed that all he said was "verily, verily". He also talked about himself and his accomplishments a great deal. Well, pretty much every video tape, at least 5 minutes was devoted to himself. Easy class though.

Take this guy for BIBL 110! He is a great professor, he is also really funny. Knows a lot about the bible, and is interesting.

Dr. Towns is so awesome! He is just so cute and smart, you can't help but love him.

open book quizzes, no tests...just go to class and you'll do fine

how can you say anything negative about the towns, he too old not be be cool as hell

The class can get kind of boring after a while. But, there are NO TESTS in this class and the quizes are fairly simple. Assigned seating, though.

I love elmer towns!!! He is the cutest old man ever, and really interesting.

Elmer Towns...wow! I absolutely LOVE this guy. Some people may find this man rather on the borning side, but if you pay attention to him you will surely learn a lot. He has got to be one of the smartest teachers at Liberty. I wish that everyone could take his class.

I highly respect Dr. Towns. He is truly a man of God. Being in a high position I know he gets very busy, but he's probably actually there to lecture about half the time. I feel if you are so busy you won't be there half the time, why teach it? I'm glad I took Towns, but I wish he were in class more. Other than this, I like everything about it.

Agreeing with the person before...he should teach the class more. His poor Grad Assistant gets too little warning that he'll teach instead. however, I think the cancer slowed him down, so I wont complain. Overall..good class. Listen to Dr. Towns and you'll catch the HEART of the Bible instead of merely dry facts.

Whoever dissed Towns is a loser! He is the best teacher on earth!! I had him for 3 classes and I learned so much that I can't contain it! I am humbled by this man of God! Rock on Dr.Towns!!!

I absolutely LOVE Elmer Towns. He's great!

I love Towns. He is the best teacher. If you say you didn't learn anything in this class, it is because you were not there or didn't listen. He has a wealth of knowledge. He is a wonderful guy and teacher. Take his class if you can. He is the best!

here's the thing about towns... he's an old man. he's funny as all get out (mostly because he's an old man), and he knows the Bible like no one else i know... but he's a crazy old man. i respect and adore him- he's just... i dunno- take his class so you'll get the jokes in Christmas convo... that's all...

he's knows everything about the Bible, no matter what Jerry says.

towns seriously rocks my world. the man is funny, knowledgable, and utterly amazing in general. just show him the respect he deserves. libety would not be the same without him.

Towns is awesome. He knows a lot about the Bible plus he tells funny stories, sings, dances, and makes a map of Israel on his hand. His class is very entertaining and interesting and you learn alot.

Excellent teacher and a very interesting man to listen to. Love him !!

AWESOME, HE IS THE BEST!!!

Dr. Towns is a very good teacher, he takes pride in what he does. He knows a lot about Jesus, and the Holy Land. I think he might of been there at "The Last Supper" His class is easy, and not a lot of work, just open Bible quizzes.

Towns is an extremely caring professor, and he makes the subject matter interesting. I really enjoyed his class, and plan to take my other theology class with him.

Rather boring at times but its a pretty decent class, and he definitely does have a lot of knowledge on the topic, I don't know what that other person was talking about.

Truly an amazing individual...I cannot comprehend how anyone can not like this man.

Elmer Towns is an interesting, intelligent and a man of his word! When he teaches, everyone listens because his classes are so amazing and he's very knowledgable and can make the Bible so much fun.... Great job!!

Absolutely GREAT professor. He has an amazing mind, completely full of wisdom and many great stories. He lectures, but it a comfortable and not dry way. He relates to the students awesomely. If you do the work, you do great. He's just a very busy man with all of his commitments, so sometimes he misses a lot of classes [and I missed him :( ]

Dr. Towns is adorable. His new testament survey class is really easy and he has great pictures and stories to help the time go by fast.

His work/book studying the Gospel of John is terrific.

I took the course through distance learning and Town's was great! He talked a bit slow for me but I watched the video on 2x speed and it was grrr8! Neat stories, neat guy, good material. Don't let it just get stuck in your head, let it sink down to your heart.

Class was a lot of fun. I leared so much about the Old Testament. If Dr. Towns taught every class, I would take them all!

Dr. Towns is absolutely adorable and I loved his class. It's pretty easy because there are no tests and he is interesting even at 7:50.. However, if you have trouble getting up, don't take it because a largge part of your grade is based on quizzes and attendance. I loved his class though!

He speaks with amazing clarity about the Bible and his zeal for teaching and God combined make him a very engaging speaker and teacher.

Perhaps the most genuine, loving professor at LU. If you've got issues with Elmer, I've got issues with you. And I'm a Marine, so I don't recommend it.

I had Dr. Towns for BIBL 323: The Gospel of John DLP (He was the professor on the DVDs). He is the cutest professor ever, and so spirit-filled. I just wanted to give him a hug! I learned a lot from this course and would LOVE to take another class of his!

such a cute old man. He is very knowledgable and has a lot of good things to say. Tells lots of stories. Have a quiz (normally open book) ever class but no tests.

Dr. Towns is an awesome teacher! I had him for a 7:40 class and he always tried to liven things up by telling funny stories and showing pictures. He's very straightforward. Notes were fill in the blank, there's usually a quiz every class but don't worry they are almost ALWAYS open book. Definitely take him!! Easiest class ever.

He is good, he gets off topic a lot. His powerpoints are very detailed, and can get boring when you have him at 7:40.

His class is an easy A. You don't really even have to try that much. I even forgot some of the assignments! Anyway, you should also go to his Sunday school class for extra credit, one point for each one and it's unlimited. He says a lot of cute little things that will make you smile.

The class was really tedious and boring, and Dr. Towns at least tried to keep it interesting, but he kind of makes some foot-in-mouth comments occasionally, and gets off topic A LOT

It's Elmer Towns! Of course he's brilliant; it seems like he knows everything about the Bible. He definitely keeps things interesting w/a bunch of little facts you might not have ever thought of, plus he's been to almost all of the places he talks about in relation to the Bible. I would recommend him; you'll learn a lot.

Elmer Towns is easily the greatest and dirtiest old man on campus. If I was given the opportunity to hang out with him for a day I would. His class is very easy if you go.... I didn't so i got a bad grade, but still he is the best teacher ever, and how can none of you think he's hott how dare you!!!!!

You will learn a lot if you pay attention. I thought he did very well at teaching the topic. Easiest A I've ever had.

My favorite Professor and Theologian of all time!

Quizzes are open book/open notes (mostly). I think the quizzes were more difficult than in 201. I enjoyed the class just as I did in 201.

It's Dr. Towns. Nuf said :D

You need to quit being disrespectful towards a man of God. Further, your swearing is not what a Liberty student is supposed to represent. You will reap what you sow, sonny boy. If it wasn't for Dr. Towns you wouldn't have a place to go to school. That being said, Towns has the best class in the world. He's a great man of God and I learned lots

One of the most genuine and loving Christians at LU. A truly great man of God whom I count it a blessing to have been able to take his class. Many stories but valuable. Ask him how many classes he teached without pay as well. Great man of God. God Bless you Dr. Towns.

Took him last semester and taking him again! You can't go to LU and not take Towns at least once! He's incredible! You never know what he is going to do or say. Final was hard, but doesnt really effect your grade that much. Take the quizzes and you'll be fine! He's awesome!

I love Towns! He is so much fun in the classroom and definitely ties in the lesson with real-world applications.

Dr. Towns is a really knowledgeable man. He makes class interesting, yet its kind of slow. This is a class you don't really want to take for a long period of time, or when your tired. It would make a perfect midday class. The only thing that worries me is that the semester has 1 month left and we have yet to have an exam...Yikes!

This class is definitely easy, and it doesn't take very much work. You just do the fill-in-the-blanks during class, and sometimes you read a chapter. It's usually pretty boring, but sometimes Dr. Towns does/says funny things that make the class real entertaining. It's a pretty boring class, but it's easy and can be interesting.

He is a good teacher but his GA's are freaking pricks, especially the head GA, he is so full of himself. It is a fairly easy class but make sure you read for the quizzes. If you actually wanna learn stuff from the Bible, I don't recommend this class. :)

Towns is a great teacher. He is hilarious and obviously knows a lot about the Bible. I wish I knew him personally. The only problem is class get get boring sometimes because of its length.

Dr. Towns is a living legend. You need to take him at least once. His BIBL 110 class is really easy. No tests, just one quiz per class. Quizzes aren't bad, just do the reading and you'll be fine. The best thing is that class gets out early almost every time!

He gets sidetracked and tends to ramble, but he is very easy and very nice. Your only grades are easy quizes.

Dr. Towns is an interesting and funny professor. He is 82 and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. He can go off on tangents at times, but he knows his New Testament and makes his lectures intriguing.

Dr. Towns is a surprisingly open-minded professor and lecturer of theology. He lets you know his opinions but clearly distinguishes between what the Bible says on the matter and what he believes. Overall, a knowledgeable and entertaining lecturer.

Dr. Towns is a lot of fun to listen to, and interesting! My husband and I took the online course, and we looked forward to his taped lectures. Very knowledgeable. The class is easy IF you read and do the study guides, which is nice. Instead of being overwhelmed with pressure and assignments, you can actually ENJOY your learning! :)

not a hard class. Do well on quizes and you'll have an A. Sometimes he tells stories or says stuff that have absolutely nothing to do with class but they can be entertaining at times

This class is easy. I took it more to experience the legend that is towns.

Dr. Towns is amazing. 3 years later, his class is still the best I have ever taken. This man is a legend.

Towns is awesome. You need to take him for at least one class to get the full "Liberty Experience." I have him for both New Testament Survey and Theology and I don't regret it at all. Missing class hurts your grade so attend and I definitely recommend!

Dr. Towns is a great teacher is really a big part of the history of Fundamentalism in the 20th Century. A great role model and mentor.

Great teacher, and funny to listen to! Sometimes he can go off track, but he has some interesting stories! Pretty easy too, as long as you do your reading.

Good man. Not super academic but wise and gracious!

He is a greatest teacher and I was truly blessed to have the opportunity to be taught by him.

Experience counts. The man co-founded the University. He is in his 80's and STILL travels the world delivering sermons. I found his sermons more enjoyable than class lectures, class lectures feel like more of a conversation where his own opinions and thoughts are shared. He has written over 50 books! I have his Prayer Bible. love it.
