Content & Setting of the Gospel Tradition
NT301/NT501
This is one of two foundational units that form the basis for all further study of the NT. You will learn the main shape of Mark’s Gospel and the distinctives of the other Gospels, along with the key issues when it comes to studying features of Jesus’ life and ministry like his parables, miracles, titles, death and resurrection, and the first-century context in which this all occurs. You should develop a greater appreciation for how to read and interpret the Gospels, and apply them to your own personal growth and ministry.
