About This Course
In this introduction to the New Testament, we will explore what is in it (Gospels and Letters), and what is not. A close look at the canonical and non-canonical gospels and careful consideration of the Jesus in the Synoptics and in John, who crosses human-made boundaries with compassion and inclusion, will guide us in applying biblical teachings in practice. What is the good news? Students will develop skills to interpret biblical texts in dialogue between ancient contexts and the contexts in which they serve. This may include using the Bible for spiritual formation, preaching, or other community needs.
