Course Description:
The most compelling and important story in history is the story of Christ. In this course, learners complete a chronological and synthetic study of the Gospels' accounts of Christ's birth, life, death, resurrection, and ascension. The course focuses on the time, place, circumstances, and people involved in the events of our Lord's ministry. From the Incarnation to the Ascension, students will grasp a fuller understanding of Christ's words and works, especially in light of Old Testament prophecy and cultural context. The goal of the course is that Christ will impact learners' lives as He did those first generation followers, leading them to worship and serve Him as they minister to others.
Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to:
- Trace the events and statements of Jesus' life in a logical and chronological sequence, demonstrating their development and purpose.
- Explain the present implications of selected basic truths taught and demonstrated by Jesus Christ during His ministry and death.
- Make attitudinal and/or behavioral changes in his/her life as a result of an increased understanding of the life of Christ.
