Course Description:
Acts 4:12 declares that there is no other Name given to mankind, that we might be saved – Jesus. Students will get to know Jesus through a topical study of His work and ministry, both on earth and in heaven. Jesus ties together God’s plan throughout the Old Testament and His interaction and intervention in the lives of those who follow Him today. Students will explore both the Old Testament roots of Jesus’ various ministries and the way those roles influence their current relationship with Him. The last module takes those ideas and puts them into practice, allowing students the opportunity to see Jesus live His life and do His ministry through them.
