NT510 New Testament Narratives (3 credits)
Tuesdays: 2.00 pm – 5.30 pm, 20 July – 20 November 2015
There’s only one Jesus Christ, so why are there four Gospels? This course will uncover the way each Gospel gives us a compatible, yet distinct, portrait of the character, life, and teachings of our Lord. It will also explore what Jesus continued to do and teach through the early church as seen in the book of Acts. You will learn about the first-century context of Jesus and the early church as well as how the world-changing movement Jesus started continues to impact our lives today. Pre-requisite: BS510 Bible Study Methods and Hermeneutics. Students taking this course for audit (i.e. not for credit), will not be required to fulfil the pre-requisite.
