Course Highlights
Köstenberger offers Jesus and the Gospels course
Our new research professor of New Testament and Biblical Theology, Dr. Andreas Köstenberger, will offer his first course as an on-campus elective course in Biblical Theology for graduate students on the Jesus and the Gospels. As electives like this are not offered every semester, this is a great opportunity to learn and study with a gifted scholar about our Lord Jesus and how to read and understand the four Gospels. If you have not yet taken New Testament Survey 1, this course can serve as a substitution for that course as well. Knowledge of Greek will be helpful for this class, but is not required as a prerequisite. To learn more about Dr. Köstenberger and his ministry of scholarship and teaching, read here »
