Jesus Foretold and Fulfilled – An Online Course
Course begins Nov. 19
Explore the Scriptures of Advent and Christmas for a richer celebration of these seasons. In this course you will have the opportunity to break open the Church’s weekday readings for Advent, with emphasis on the dynamic of promise and fulfillment between the Old and New Testament readings as they are organized in the Lectionary. Hope for a messianic leader to bring justice, healing, peace, and an encounter with God to the whole world is key. Then, take a closer look at the infancy narratives, and the distinctive ways they allude to the Scriptures and history of the Jewish people to proclaim who the child Jesus is.
