Course Description
In this four-week course, we explore the creative richness of Luke's gospel. We will follow the story's path: the preface and prologue, Jesus's Galilean ministry, the journey to Jerusalem, and finally--the Passion, Resurrection, and Ascension. Paying attention to the literary and historical details as we progress through the narrative together, we are sure to discover the many things that make the Third Gospel unique!
