GROW’s New Testament Study will provide church and community members the opportunity to explore the Christian canon in a new way. Using Marcus Borg’s Evolution of the Word as its central text, the class will review the New Testament in depth, in the order the books were written (rather than the order they appear in the canon). Such a reading will offer a strong, historical foundation to those who wish to expand their knowledge about the Bible and provide a glimpse into the development of early Christian thought. Sessions will be held at 9:00 am on Sunday mornings (before worship), and will cover the book(s) that participants would have been asked to read over the previous week.
This learning opportunity will be facilitated through a collaborative effort by a number of GROW team members, which will offer participants a great diversity of perspective, experience, and insight into the Christian scriptures.
