This course seeks to introduce methods of analyzing Scripture in order to uncover meanings in the text. Participants will begin to reflect on how the theological meanings they find in Scripture can lead to the proclamation of a gracious God and the good news of Jesus Christ. Learners will find it difficult to take this course without previously studying The Story of the Old Testament and the Story of the New Testament first.
