Course description:
Focus of this course is on the first four books of the New Testament (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), especially those stories often encountered in Western literature, music, and art. It begins with a brief overview of the Hebrew Scriptures or Old Testament, the origins of the Bible, and the Period between the Testaments; examining this time historically and its literature. Also included is an introduction and overview of the New Testament.
Textbook:
The primary textbook for this class is the Bible. Students may use any translation of the Bible. They will access their choice of translation via the website Biblegateway.com. In class use I will refer to the New English Standard Bible. The Bible and It’s Influence edited by Cullen Schippe and Chuck Stetson is our supporting text and students can access this book in class or check out.
Extraordinary Classroom Expectations:
Weekly Journal Assignment:
In your Evernote notebook for Bible each week you are to make an entry on a note labeled “Bible Journal”. Your entry is to be dated for the Friday of that week and contain the following: 3 to 5 sentences reflecting on the material that was studied that week. You may voice specific questions, opinions or conclusions drawn from relevant material. This is to be a chance for reflection not a summary and must be directly related to that week. This will be checked on Friday and if not completed then it will be accepted on Monday only for -20.
Grading: Tests/Projects count 60% and quizzes/weekly journals/assignments count 40%.
