103 Snapshots from the Life of Christ
Level 1 Course
This is an introductory course on the Life of Jesus for groups to study together. It requires no homework and is downloadable for free, see below
This brief course is intended for those who:
may not have a lot of time for study at present
but who want study that is solidly based
upon which further study can be built when possible
So we hope to convey:
An outline of the life and teaching of Jesus Christ based mostly on Matthew’s Gospel
A sound method of interpreting and applying the teaching of the Gospels to our own situation.
The method used is basically the same as that used in GOLD Project modules:
A text with which the student interacts, responds to questions and receives feedback;
Discussion with a peer group (with leader)
Unlike a regular GOLD Project module
It does not require homework: you work through each section together
and it does provide colour pictures from the world of art to stimulate further creative thinking and reflection
We also include:
A quiz – which will indicate to you how much you have learnt - and possibly reveal some gaps?
Suggested reading with explanatory notes and questions for discussion.
Throughout this process we’ll lay emphasis on both imaginative creativity and critical discernment.
