Text: The Chalice Introduction to the New Testament
Course Description: As one who preaches and is considered a spiritual leader in a Disciples of Christ congregation, perhaps there is nothing more important than developing a good understanding of the New Testament. In this church tradition our founders understood that the Word of God could be found in the Bible. You will note that is a bit different than saying that the Bible is the Word of God. Our founders understood that those who wrote the Bible, including the New Testament, were very much influenced by their world they lived in. Therefore, it is important to be able to identify what is more cultural tradition and what is eternal truth. To do that, we will be studying parts of all 27 books of the New Testament and bring to bear on this study all of the latest information that has been discovered in archaeology and biblical studies.
