A Study Group Reads Beyond the Passion.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Twelve of us gather once a month, for three hours, for a study of recent books interpreting Scripture. We've just finished Beyond the Passion in 5 sessions. Each chapter was thought provoking and full of insights. We agreed it was an excellent text because it gave new meaning to our understanding of the life and death of Jesus of Nazareth. We agreed that these new ways of understanding the text was one that we would recommend for all Christians who want to deepen and extend their understanding of the life of Jesus of Nazareth. Knowing Jesus' life is necessary to understand his death.
