COURSE DESCRIPTION: Together we will explore what the Gospel is and how best to communicate the Gospel in the 21st Century. We will discuss practical ways for living out our baptismal calling. Our sessions will include discovering the “gospel” in the four Gospels, as well as how the gospel is communicated in worship, read and spoken word, preaching, the sacraments, and the arts. The gospel is most vividly expressed in communities of compassion and lives of service.
COURSE PURPOSE: To gain an understanding of the gospel message, as presented in the four canonical Gospels, and multiples ways to share that message both within the Christian community and in the world beyond the church.
