Courses for 2007 - 2008:

Fall 2007 (Sept - Dec)

BIBL 7313 Contemporary Portraits of Jesus. This lively course takes a critical look at some of the strange and novel scholarship (both learned and bogus) concerned with the historical Jesus. The course will expose the misinterpretations, lack of proper evidence and documentation, and dubious assumptions that lie behind some of the most publicized and notorious challenges to traditional Christian faith and the historical Jesus and his world that have arisen in recent years. Contrary to these extreme and unduly skeptical portraits a fair assessment of the New Testament Gospels and the historical Jesus, including his resurrection, will be offered. Tuesday nights at the Baptist Church in Aylesford, Nova Scotia.

Summer 2008 (July)

NS501 NT 2. This course provides an introduction to the study of the book of Acts, the letters of the New Testament, and the book of Revelation. Questions such as the authorship, purpose, structure, date, and occasion of each of these documents are considered insofar as they aid our understanding of the New Testament and contribute to our grasp of the theology of each of these documents. These writings, which proclaim the good news of Messiah Jesus, will be studied in historical context, beginning with important figures and developments in the "intertestamental" period.
